It’s a new year and a time to reset, reflect and think about what the next few months has in store. Here on the Age of Empires team, we’ve got a

Updates on AOE2, AOE3, AOE4, Age of Mythology: Retold gameplay reveal, and last, but also least, AOE Mobile gameplay reveal

 

[RAIDEN1]

What has been released on Gamepass is good, but it takes a HUGE amount of time to get settled into the game...whilst you've got other backlogs in the background..

 

[Tams]

Boring.

Unless it's Age of Empires IV and V, then I have no interest.

 

[Hudo]

Ohhhh I am more excited for this (age of mythology retold news?) than I was for the State of Play.

Age of mythology is one of my first PC games ever. I don't think that the stream interest me because I am already sold 100% on this.

 

[Woopah]

I hope Mythology Retold comes out this year. I played the original to death so I'm vey excited abut this.

 

[IDKFA]

I'll take Age of Mythology on Xbox please.

Age of Empires 2 is one of the only GP games that never gets deleted from my console.

 

[Sentenza]

Boring.

Unless it's Age of Empires IV and V, then I have no interest.

Unless I’m missing a joke here, AOE IV already released a while ago.

 

[eats]

It is insane that this game is still so popular after all these years.

 

[Tams]

That wasn't AoE IV; it was just a redo of AoE II that they stuck that name on.

Bloody pissed off I am.

Honestly its the only aoe game im actually looking forward too, was kinda disappointed in in the 4th game tbh but id take a third game then them supporting the 4th game, it looks cool when you play it but it just doesnt feel anyway near as good as the esembled games

I haven't got the 4th game yet, so that's disappointing to hear!

I really enjoyed the documentary approach they took toward the campaign. Never got into the MP, but I heard it's basically a different game.

I would mostly play single player, so maybe I will try it afterall!

I just don't think you can do it better than Company of Heroes. Not even Relic could and they tried twice.

If that's the case, I would suggest a month of game pass and play over the month. That's what I did. They put some real work into the atmosphere of the campaign.

It is but not really in a bad way. Aoe4 is underrated.

 

[LordOfChaos]

I hope Retold leads to an Age of Mythology 2

Man it was dry for RTS games for a few years there

That's actually a great idea, thanks!

 

[Arsic]

More Age 2 stuff please.

It’s a permanent game on my SSD on my PC.

I literally will just boot up practice to beat bots up and relax. Age 2 and Diablo 2 have been my forever games.

Hell yea man. StarCraft 2 as well for me. Peak videogames.

 

[damidu]

PS5 announcement incoming?

Peaked Diamond in SC2 as Zerg. Retired. To this day I still watch pro sc1&2, and watch Artosis.

Who would’ve thought Day9 would abandon SC, and Arty became our savior?

[Woopah]

Give me a 2024 release date for Mythology.

 

[Woopah]

Why is this being hosted by a YouTuber? It's giving the whole thing a really weird vibe.

 

[ByWatterson]

Just put AOE2 on PS5.

 

[Sybrix]

wtf is this?

Has the livestream happened and this dude is now re-watching it back?

 

[Woopah]

Nope. The official event is to have a streamer host it, react to it, analyse it and discuss it with chat all at the same time.

Edit: He's the host and had to ask chat what the content he's announcing even means.....

 

[flying_sq]

So, no gameplay for AOM Retold, but they said it's a 2024 release. Pics from steam

It's.... beautiful. And you can see immediately that they are indeed using AoE3 DE's engine.

Also can't wait for the campaign DLC for AoE2 DE
