Age of Empires Mobile Set to Launch Globally This October
/
A new Age of Empires is releasing this October but not one you expect. Age of Empires Mobile will be launching globally on iOS and Android devices on October 17.
This iteration of the famous real-time strategy series was co-developed by TiMi Studio Group (Call of Duty: Mobile, Pokémon Unite) and World’s Edge, a studio under the Xbox Games.
Here’s a rundown of the game’s features.
Multiple single-player modes built on the Age of Empires lineage and featuring iconic elements from the original series
Options to build your empire in a lively, realistic medieval world, featuring stunning civilizations, imperial cities and historical figures
Immersive battlefields offering one of a kind original gameplay with large-scale castle sieges, featuring realistic weapons taking on multi-dimensional defenses in a fight with thousands of players worldwide
Opportunities to be strategic as you encounter realistic and interactive terrain and weather and manage multiple troops with real-time micro-control
“We expect players to mystify, mislead and surprise their enemies through the realistic, immersive, medieval gameplay featured in Age of Empires Mobile,” said TiMi Studios team leader and studio general manager Brayden Fan.
“We’ve already seen alliances form and alliances crumble through our multi-month playtesting. Through it all, players have shown strategic wit, savvy teamwork and a passion for an entirely new Age of Empires experience.”
Age of Empires Mobile is already available in certain regions like the Philippines in an early access state, but it will officially be out worldwide on October 17 on Android and iOS devices.
Life is Strange: Double Exposure brings back Max Caulfield with new time-manipulation powers, but struggles to capture the original’s emotional weight. While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
