01Overview

Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition is a remaster of the real-time strategy game with remastered graphics and music, all previously released expansions and new content. Players take control of empires from Europe, Asia and the Americas. The game has 18 civilizations, including the Swedes, Inca, Mexico and the USA. Each one has its own bonuses, and you build a deck of Home City cards to call in resources, units and upgrades during a match. Revolutions let you switch to a new nation such as Brazil, Indonesia or Egypt, which unlocks nation-specific cards and units. Two players can team up in 9 co-op historical battles based on real events, and the Art of War challenge missions teach the core mechanics through short scenarios. Campaigns, skirmishes against the computer and online matches with cross-platform multiplayer are also included. Hero cosmetics are available as well. Maps include a variety of settings across the Old and New Worlds, and matches can be played with friends or against AI opponents of several difficulty levels.
