In November 2019 Age of Empire II: Definitive Edition (DE) officially released. For the first anniversary, an update was made available with many new features, including the Battle Royale mode.
However, here we’re going to be talking about a DLC rather than an update. Whoever says DLC says price: $ 9.99, because we don’t like round numbers! And with that Game Pass for PC is available for $ 8.99. But enough about the price, let’s look at the content.
Two new civilizations
The Burgondes (Burgundy in English), mainly drivers, have a unique unit Coustillier that has great charging power. One technology can transform all villagers too Milice Flemish This is heavy infantry effective against cavalry. And in the event of food overproduction, the technology allows you to convert all of your food back to gold at a 2 to 1 ratio.
You can also take control Sicilian (Sicilian in English). In contrast to the Burgundians, civilization here is mainly in the infantry with their unique unit sergeant. A heavy infantry that can also build a dungeon (unique building) that will spawn other sergeants and allow them and the villagers to gather there to defend themselves. After doing research, we can have seven sergeants per city center and 15 gold for each military unit owned.
New campaigns
We are entitled to three new, fully synchronized campaigns.
Edward Longshanks, a hostage of rebel barons, is determined to regain his rights over England, and his thirst for power will bring him back much further than his homelands. In this campaign we will of course play the British.
The Grand Dukes of the West (The Grand Dukes of the West Original name in English) have been embroiled in a bloody battle for control of the mad French king for a decade (can you guess?). Here we can test the new nation from Burgondes
Break up, The Hautvilles (from English The Hautvilles) whose family members became dukes of Italy, princes of the Holy Land, and even kings of Sicily. We will bring the three cultures together in this famous Kingdom of Sicily where, as you will understand, we will play with the Sicilians.
