Hey everyone!

It’s been a while, but it’s time to break the silence! Microsoft has just announced continued support for Age of Empires II. Including a new expansion pack later this year, featuring new civs, campaigns, maps, units, techs, etc… And we’re happy to help them develop that new expansion with the help of SkyBox Labs. 😀

We’ll release more information on the new content as it’s being developed, so stay tuned! Although we can already share a first sneaky screenshot.

Additionally, a new patch has been released, it’s a rather small patch, but hopefully one with a big impact on performance. Especially in long Black Forest games you should see some good improvements.

Long live Age of Empires! 😀
