Update: Age of Empires III: DE – DLC Delayed

In February we hosted the New Year New Age even which looked ahead to what was coming in the Age of Empires and Age of Mythology franchises. Part of the roster of announcements was revealing a new DLC for Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition, with a release date of the end of 2024. 

With many active projects across the franchise, we’ll be pushing out the release for the DLC to a future date. This decision was not made lightly and is based on the bandwidth of the entire Age team across World’s Edge and our partner studios. 

We understand that this will be disappointing for those of you who have been excitedly waiting for news. 

We will however be releasing a new update for Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition. This will go live at 10am PT on October 24th and adds quality of life updates and balance changes.

A big thank you to all of you who continue to play Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition and its existing DLCs.
