'Age of Mythology' Gets New Expansion After Twelve Years

by Rainier on Sept. 21, 2015 @ 8:14 a.m. PDT

Age of Mythology transports players to a time when heroes battled with monsters of legend and gods intervened in the affairs of mortal men.

Players create armies, develop their civilizations through the ages and manage economics through resource gathering and trade. The mythological excitement begins when players call upon the gods to act on their behalf, or reinforce their armies with more than 25 mythological creatures.

Age of Mythology transports players to a time when heroes did battle with monsters of legend and the gods intervened in the affairs of mortals. Use mythological creatures like Minotaurs and Cyclopes to bolster your armies' strength. Call upon the gods for assistance in flattening enemy towns with meteors or scatter opposing troops with lightning storms.

13 years. It’s been 13 years since the release of Age of Mythology on PC. And 12 years since the release of its expansion pack: The Titans. But for great games like Age of Mythology, these years are merely a number. It’s time for a new expansion pack! With the collective experience and with expansions for the Age of Empires II series, Age of Mythology almost feels like the next logical step, although next time we probably shouldn’t wait over a decade before taking on the challenge.

Age of Mythology: Tale of the Dragon is being created by Forgotten Empires and  SkyBox Labs and will be the next part in the legendary series.

So make sure to tune in for a livestream on  October 2nd (exact time will be posted later).
