All-new 4K graphics, increased population limit, an expanded user interface, a re-orchestrated soundtrack much more await players as they build and battle through the ages.

I'd rather just wait for Age of Empires IV.

Why? There's been so little said of it.

Besides, if you are a die-hard like me, provided it isn't another AoE III, I'll do both.

It is incredible to think this game was made in 1997

The original Age of Empires still rates as the best game I ever owned/played. Granted I was 11 years old but I spent days and days playing it and Rise of Rome.

I "wasted" a lot of my school homework time playing the various AOE games.

This is going to be epic.

Rise of Rome was my favourite

Damn dude. If you're this crazy about RTS games you should also play StarCraft 2.

My backlog for games is massive. This remaster looks like as good a job as anyone could reasonably expect, but it still looks pretty old.

I get my strategy fix from Civ 6 and StarCraft 2.

Age of Mythology was my favourite. Followed by the Star Wars RTS.
