The development team at The Creative Assembly is announcing that the fifth full patch for Total War: Rome II is now out and that it adds a number of changes to the core gameplay and bug fixes.

At the same time, gamers will get free access to the new Seleucid faction, which introduces more units to use, varied Campaign Objectives and a new unique world wonder.

The civilization relies on heavy cavalry regiments in order to subjugate smaller nations.

Gamers can also enjoy full Steam Workshop integration, which makes it easier than ever to deliver tweaks and mods from the community.

The official announcement expands on the changes included in patch 5, stating, "Among these are a number of optimisations to Campaign Map performance, which improve framerates with the fog-of-war and when there are many armies, navies and agents on-screen. We’ve also sped up end-turn times in situations where the player has multiple allies."
