Age of Empires Mobile, a spin-off of the iconic real-time strategy video game series, Age of Empires, is gearing up for a global release. The highly anticipated mobile game is coming to both Android and iOS on October 17. Developed by the TiMi Studio Group in collaboration with World’s Edge, the game promises to deliver a fresh yet familiar experience to fans, offering core elements of the legendary game in a new, mobile-friendly format.

The announcement was made on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter), and a cinematic trailer accompanied the post.

The game, which features multiple single-player modes, will allow users to build their empire in a medieval-world setting that includes historical sites and figures, complex battlefields, and realistic weapons. Starting with nothing more than a single outpost, your strategic decisions and alliances are what will pave the way for you to transform your humble empire into a mighty civilization.

But that’s not all. One of the key highlights of the game is that users will have the ability to lead their armies using legendary historical heroes, from Darius the Great to Joan of Arc. Each of these characters will feature a unique set of skills and talents that users can leverage to gain a strategic advantage on the battlefield.
