The new edition utilizes modern engine technology and offers 4K resolution, smooth animations, and an improved user interface.
Classic peoples, new depth
In Age of Mythology Retold, choose again between the Greeks, Egyptians, Norsemen, and Atlanteans—each with unique units, gods, and gameplay mechanics. The retold version brings not only visual improvements but also gameplay tweaks that modernize the balance and optimize the feel of the game without losing the nostalgic core.
The gods get involved
A central element remains the belief system: You worship major gods like Zeus, Ra, or Odin, but also minor deities who grant you new technologies, divine spells, or powerful units like manticores or phoenixes. Use natural disasters, divine curses, or helpful creatures to turn the tide in your favor.
