Following the success of FX’s hit show Shōgun, players are rediscovering a Total War: Shogun 2 mod that takes place in the same time period.
Shōgun is a historical drama based on the 1975 novel of the same name by James Clavell, and has achieved critical acclaim since it launched earlier this year. Set in feudal Japan, the dramatised events of Shōgun take place in the run-up to the Battle of Sekigahara, which took place in 1600 and changed the course of Japanese history.
Players can now experience a number of historical battles from that period with a mod for Total War: Shogun 2 (via PC Gamer).
The Sekigahara Campaign is a “reworked Shogun 2 scenario and overhaul mod, set up in 1591 around the Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu factions’ final climactic clash for the domination of Japan right before the Battle of Sekigahara”, according to the Steam listing.
