Here's the official blurb:

"Embarking on a new grand campaign, you will be tasked with saving or exploiting the power of a dying god. Each race offers a unique journey through the nightmarish Chaos Realm, culminating in an endgame that will determine the fate of the world."

Kislev is known as the Realm of the Ice Queen, and is the most northerly human civilisation in the Old World. Cathay, also known as the Empire of the Celestial Dragon, is a civilisation of humans set in the Far East of the world.

Expect a launch on Steam and the Epic Games Store at some point in 2021.
