The AOE 2: Definitive Edition was shown off for the first time during Microsoft's press conference at E3 2019, and is due out autumn this year, but there's no date for 3's Definitive Edition just yet. It's super simple and definitely not convoluted at all.
Age of Mythology got an Extended Edition back in 2014, which is more akin to the Age of Empires 2 HD edition that game got back in 2013 than the Definitive Editions coming out soon. Speaking to us out at E3 this year Adam Isgreen, Creative Director for all things Age of Empires at Microsoft, said the team would be taking a look at Age of Mythology "after we get through the Definitive Editions for the three here, and 4 is kind of rolling".įor a quick refresher on that, the original Age of Empires already has a Definitive Edition out in the wild, whilst AOE 2 and 3 both had Definitive Edition's announced back in 2017, along with the announcement of AOE 4. Age of Mythology, the classics-based classic, sounds like it will get some attention from Microsoft in the not-too-distant future, although what kind of attention that might be is still a little vague.
