About the game

Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition is a definitive real-time strategy package built around one of the genre’s most enduring campaigns. Guide civilizations through landmark eras, balance food, wood, gold, and stone, and turn careful economic planning into armies capable of changing history. The edition combines a large campaign library with skirmishes, co-op, and competitive multiplayer, while Xbox support adds cross-generation play, console keyboard and mouse support, cloud saves, and Play Anywhere convenience. It remains a richly systemic strategy game for both patient builders and aggressive commanders.
