Total War: Attila released their Celts Culture Pack on March 25 as the second DLC to the game. As the name suggests, it highlights the addition of the Celtic tribes of the Ebdanians, Caledonians, and Picts which brings three new playable factions to the game. Despite being separated, the three will have the same cultural traits but will be differentiated through certain unique characteristics.

Generally, the Celtic tribe features swift and deadly warfare and will be more applicable for sacking, looting, and raiding. Additionally, they will be having the Guerilla Deployment trait which allows units to be deployed on any part of the battlefield, even on enemy lines. Also, a series of characteristics will be found making the tribes more specialized for ambush tactics.

Along with the factions also introduces new units, buildings, and skill trees. A new mechanic is also introduced for unlocking prestige buildings. Furthermore, a new unique raiding building chain paired with Celtic-themed technologies will also be added. In addition, all of these features can be used in any single, multiplayer, or custom modes for unending fun.

However, it is the game's narrative which has made it stood out, as a result, the update also brings a new unique narrative event-chain, specifically the Cycle of the Ollam Ri, and Celtic missions for each faction. This expands the currently long-running story of the game and provides the possibility of tricky plot-twists throughout. The current narrative of the game is already intense, how much more with the three new added factions.

These new tribes will certainly change the way how warfare once was in the game. This will require players to adapt with the new skills and units especially in the multiplayer environment. However, users of the new factions themselves need to practice considering that there are almost 8 new types of units for each. As of the moment, there are no announcements for future possible DLCs though current players will be kept preoccupied by the Total War Attila Celts Culture Pack.
