{{stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a strategy game developed by [[The Creative Assembly]] and published by [[Activision]] for the Windows PC in 2004. Two expansion packs were published by [[Sega]] — ''[[Rome: Total War - Barbarian Invasion]]'' in 2005 and ''[[Rome: Total War - Alexander]]'' in 2006.
'''''Rome: Total War''''' is a strategy game developed by [[The Creative Assembly]] and published by [[Activision]] for the Windows PC in 2004. Two expansion packs were published by [[Sega]] — ''Rome: Total War Barbarian Invasion'' in 2005 and ''Rome: Total War Alexander'' in 2006. The core game continues to be published as part of a "Gold Edition" (which includes the ''Barbarian Invasion'' expansion pack) by Sega.
 
  
It is unclear if the standalone game was released in Japan, but both ''Barbarian Invasion'' and the Gold Edition (as '''''Rome: Total War Nihongo Kanzenban''''' (ROME : Total War 日本語完全版)), were.
+
The Steam version was initially released as '''''Rome: Total War - Gold''''', later renamed '''''Rome: Total War - Collection''''', with an optional ''Alexander'' expansion as '''''Rome: Total War - Complete'''''.{{ref|http://web.archive.org/web/20080921190657/http://store.steampowered.com:80/sub/463/}} ''Barbarian Invasion'' is included by default. In 2021 a remastered version of the game titled [[Total War: Rome Remastered]] was released for Steam.
  
''Barbarian Invasion'' takes place during the decline of the Roman Empire in 4th and 5th century AD. ''Alexander'' is set in the early Empire, with the player assuming the role of [[wikipedia:Alexander the Great|Alexander the Great]] beginning in 336 BC.
