REPLY TO WAIT HARBOR.
The game will have to get several updates in order for the game to have multiplayer, like RTW, or "rome total war" the game had to get about 3 to 4 updates in-order to play multiplayer. so i hope this answers your question. the game is also a grate game with really.... no flaws, but if you havent played a stragety game befor then these kinda of games can be very difficult.
