When we published our 'What are Xbox Working on in 2024’ feature, we said that we would hear about the Age of Mythology: Retold release this year, we just didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

Xbox have revealed that a special Age of Empires showcase is taking place on February 24th and will provide the first looks at both Age of Mythology: Retold and Age of Empires Mobile. In fact they have provided this list, indicating everything that is to be shown, though a surprise or two is possible.

• Age of Empires Mobile: TiMi Studios, the award-winning developer, will share a first-time look at gameplay and give us a behind the scenes look into their studio. The team will share their passion for Age of Empires and their vision to bring the franchise to new and existing fans alike.

• Age of Mythology: Retold: The team will take us behind the curtain in the studio to show how they are developing this beloved game for a new, modern experience. Fans can expect a unique unveiling of a few mythological creatures that you won’t want to miss.

• Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition: We’ll reveal a brand-new campaign-focused expansion and an extended look at exclusive gameplay.

• Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition: After giving our players a new way to play for free in 2023, we are excited to reveal a new DLC with new civilizations.

• Age of Empires IV: Coming off our best-selling expansion ever with The Sultans Ascend, we will share updates on an upcoming brand-new season and a new in-game reward.
