Get ready to battle in the New Age

Welcome to Return of Rome, a brand-new category of an expansion pack that adds Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition's original Age of Empires game as a brand-new standalone experience. With the help of this new expansion, you can compete against friends using the sixteen original Age of Empires civilizations as well as one brand-new civilization, the Lac Viet, which is available only in Return of Rome. With three new campaigns, you can engage in combat throughout the ancient globe while conquerors, empire-builders, and talented tacticians struggle valiantly against destiny. The Romans will also become a new playable culture in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, free from the constraints of time and prepared to fight in the New Age.

About the base game:

Age of Empires II: Age of Kings is, without any doubt, one of the best RTS games ever released. The original version of this 1999's classic may seem somehow outdated. Fortunately, a remaster called Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition improves many aspects of the original and adds new features without losing the game's essence.

Modern gameplay

The Definitive Edition brings visual aspects of the game to a whole new level. You'll admire 4K Ultra HD Graphics and the new textures. Moreover, you'll discover new exciting features such as co-op campaigns and The Art of War tutorial.
