Remember the heady days of early video games 20+ years ago? So do the developers behind the RTS classic title Age of Mythology: Retold. Xbox Game Studios has announced that the 22-year-old retooled game is now available for PC via Steam with both a Standard and Premium edition available for eager fans. The reworked edition of the game has been lovingly created by the same team behind the award-winning Age of Empires series.
A new trailer showcases some of the epic gameplay and features deployed to bring the game to a new generation of players.
Features include
- Call Upon the Gods – Choose your gods from the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Atlantean pantheons. Devastate your enemies by summoning powerful lightning storms, earth-shattering quakes, and even the famed Nidhogg dragon. Or call upon nourishing rains and protective Dryads to help your people grow & prosper.
- Unleash the Monsters – Unleash Centaurs, Trolls, Mummies, and more. From bejeweled crocodiles who harness the power of the sun to the mighty one-eyed Cyclops, you will command diverse units inspired by the world’s great mythologies.
- An Epic Mythological Universe – Embark on multiple campaigns spanning 50-missions that take you across a vast, mythical world: besiege the mighty walls of Troy, battle Giants in the frozen wastes of Midgard, and discover the mysteries of Osiris in the shifting sands of Egypt. Become a hero of myth—or even a god.
- Better with Friends – Play with your friends, either head-to-head or against the advanced AI, on dozens of randomly generated maps and scenarios for limitless replayability.
