About the Game

From the celebrated minds behind the acclaimed Age of Empires franchise, Age of Mythology: Retold ventures beyond the pages of history into a legendary realm where deities, beasts, and mortals clash. Immerse yourself in a thrilling real-time strategy experience featuring a sweeping campaign, both cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes, and the brand-new Arena of the Gods game mode. Establish your dominion, marshal fearsome mythical creatures, and invoke the wrath of the gods to claim ultimate victory.

Will you ascend to Mythic glory?

Set forth across multiple campaigns spanning 50 missions that carry you through an expansive mythical world: storm the legendary walls of Troy, wage war against Giants in the frozen tundra of Midgard, and unravel the secrets of Osiris beneath the windswept sands of Egypt. Rise as a hero of legend—or ascend to divinity itself.

Select your divine patrons from the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Atlantean pantheons. Lay waste to your foes by unleashing ferocious lightning tempests, ground-splitting earthquakes, and the dreaded Nidhogg dragon. Alternatively, call down life-giving rains and summon protective Dryads to nurture your civilization's growth and prosperity. And with the new Immortal Pillars expansion*, harness the ancient power of great floods and storm dragons drawn from Chinese mythology (*Immortal Pillars available with the Premium edition or sold separately).

Deploy Centaurs, Trolls, Mummies, and beyond. From gem-encrusted crocodiles wielding solar energy to the fearsome one-eyed Cyclops, you'll lead a remarkable array of units drawn from humanity's greatest mythological traditions. Through the Immortal Pillars expansion*, further your forces with winged tigers, the unpredictable Hundun, and the voracious Taotie of Chinese legend (*Immortal Pillars available with the Premium edition or sold separately).

Engage with Age of Mythology: Retold in entirely new ways. Within the core game, clash head-to-head with friends or pit yourself against a sophisticated AI across an endless variety of randomly generated maps for limitless strategic depth.

For something different, enter Arena of the Gods—a completely new mode casting you as a legendary hero navigating 35 mythic skirmishes brimming with divine trials. Go it alone or unite with allies in co-op*, fighting through extraordinary challenges while uncovering a fresh dimension of the mythological universe. Whether standing with companions or braving it solo, every run offers a distinct and infinitely replayable adventure.
