Today is the global launch for Age of Mythology: Retold and we couldn’t be more excited. 22 years since the original game became legend, this project has been a complete labor of love by all involved. We have such passion for the game, the potential of mythology for epic stories and the chaos you can create when armed with god powers.
We are so thankful to established and new players alike who’ve played so far. Today we open up the game to everyone and can’t wait to see the adventures you have. As we celebrate this moment, we want to hear from you. Share your stories, your memories, and what you’d like to see us change and balance as we grow the game. We’ll be listening.
