The preview release of Hegemony Rome 2.2 is now available in the Steam beta branch. This update introduces a brand new ambush and recon system, new modding samples, improved AI, better memory performance for 32 bit machines and a bunch of bug fixes. For the full change log check out the announcement on Steam.

As with earlier previews, this is a work-in-progress so there may be a few new bugs but let us know what you think and you can report any issues directly to us at rob@longbowgames.com

Yep, everyone who got a Steam key will get the update automatically, but if you bought it through our site you'll need to download the new installer from our download centre (we'll post when it's available).
