Age of Mythology Gold

News - Ensemble Studios' big-hope on the way...

Whilst we tend to refrain on the whole from reporting such mundane news as this (games do of course go gold on a daily basis), we couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of excitement beneath our otherwise cold and hardened exteriors, at the news that this little beauty from Ensemble Studios is complete.

The title is being duplicated as we speak, and will be in stores (in North America) come October 31st. The European release shouldn’t be too far behind.

“Using familiar elements of classical mythology, Age of Mythology casts players as one of nine unique civilizations from ancient Greek, Norse and Egyptian mythologies. Players can reinforce their armies with mythological creatures like Cyclopes and Medusas or call upon the mighty powers of gods such as Zeus to rain down lightning bolts on unsuspecting enemies. Age of Mythology also incorporates Ensemble Studios' trademark features from previous Age of Empires games, including a compelling economic model, a massive army and battle system, unequalled artificial intelligence, random maps, intuitive gameplay and extreme attention to detail.”
