“We know that the Age of Mythology community has been hopefully waiting for a Definitive Edition, and we'll be delivering,” said Michael Mann, Studio Head, World's Edge in a blog post. Titled “Age of Mythology: Retold,” the spin-off title will maintain its original essence, drawing inspiration from Greek, Egyptian, and Norse mythology, instead of historical events, as seen in the mainline series.

Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition will include all released content on its January launch day, which includes three maps, 42 multiplayer civilisations, 34 single-player campaigns, 10 multiplayer modes, and seven co-op campaigns. “We're also bringing the game to Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta), allowing players to continue their empire building, even when away from PC or console,” the blog post adds. In addition to cross-play support, Xbox has made sure to include keyboard and mouse inputs on the console version. Xbox Game Studios also announced an Age of Empires 4 Anniversary Collection for PC, now available on Steam and Microsoft Store, which includes all old and new content, throwing players into epic historical battles that “shaped the world.” However, it wasn't until a few hours later, that Microsoft decided to make it official, adding the latest Age of Empires 4 into the mix. Rumours regarding an Xbox version for Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition appeared Tuesday evening, when a new listing was spotted on the ESRB ratings database, earning a Teen rating, owing to displays of mild blood, mild language, and violence. This is a big change for the real-time strategy franchise, given that AoE has been a PC exclusive for years. Naturally, both titles will be available on the Xbox Game Pass subscription service. Meanwhile, the 2021-released Age of Empires 4 is slated to follow behind sometime next year. Microsoft confirmed during the franchise's 25-anniversary broadcast, held late Tuesday, that Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition will launch across Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and Xbox Cloud Gaming, on January 31, 2023. Age of Empires is finally headed to (Xbox) consoles.
