Fortunately, it appears Microsoft thinks in much the same way.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adam Isgreen, creative director for the Age of Empires franchise, has said Age of Mythology has not been forgotten by Microsoft during all the buzz around Age of Empires. The mythical take on real-time strategy was an Age of Empires spin-off that caused a few folks to turn their nose up at its god battling ways, although it\u2019s still gathered quite a following over the years.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cIt\u2019s great to see how much love there is for Age of Mythology because I love it too\u201d<\/em>, said Isgreen during a chat with Eurogamer.<em> \u201cit\u2019s more of a\u2026 less accurate history. It\u2019s super loose, people just have fun, and I love that too.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot going on in the world of Age of Empires right now, include the remastering of the original trilogy as well as the juicy potential of Age of Empires 4. Looking further afield though, Isgreen has said Microsoft\u2019s Age of Empires studio does plan to circle back around to Age of Mythology at some point.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><ins class=\"adsbygoogle scrolling-ad-item\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0052787453283862\" data-ad-slot=\"2741061911\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe\u2019re going to be doing a patch for Age of Mythology Extended Edition really soon\u201d,<\/em> continued Isgreen, <em>\u201cbecause there are some exploits and some things out there that we know players would love us to get rid of, so we\u2019re going to be doing that. After we get through the Definitive Editions for the three here, and AoE 4 is kind of rolling, then we\u2019re going to look back and see what we can do with Myth, because I love Myth. We\u2019re not going to leave it behind, we\u2019ll figure out what to do with it then.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>First up though is Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition. There&#8217;s a beta test running right now so selected folks are being emailed with details on how to access. Then, a little further afield, Relic Entertainment is still hard at work on Age of Empires 4. It was a total no-show at E3 2019, although we expect to hear a bit more later this year or early in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>System Requirements Low vs Ultra Screenshots GPU Performance Chart CPU List That Meet System Requirements&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2075,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[496,1032,1315,431,1316],"class_list":["post-2074","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-game-news","tag-age","tag-director","tag-leave","tag-microsoft","tag-mythology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2074","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2074"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2074\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2075"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2074"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2074"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2074"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
