Description
Age of Empires III will offer gamers the next level of realism, with advanced
battle physics and unparalleled visual detail. The new game picks up where Age
of Empires II: Age of Kings left off, placing gamers in the position of a
European power determined to explore, colonize and conquer the New World. This
time period features stunning scenes, from towering European cathedrals to
courageous tribes of Native Americans, and spectacular combat with Industrial
Age units like rifled infantry, cavalry and tall ships bristling with cannons.
Age of Empires III will once again demonstrate Ensemble Studios’ reputation for
excellence and innovation in the real-time strategy (RTS) genre. The game will
set a new standard for visual quality and amaze players with detail never before
seen in an RTS. Age of Empires III will also excite strategy gamers with new
game-play elements, including the concept of a “Home City,“ new civilizations,
units, technologies and an immersive new single-player campaign that will span
three generations.
Features
- Develop and strengthen a unique, customized Home City. The Home City
represents a player's capital back in Europe and plays a supporting role in
the attempt to control the New World. The better the player performs in the
New World, the more powerful his Home City becomes. Players can customize
their Home City to reflect unique personality traits, making the Home City a
vital character in the game.
- Explore a vibrant New World. Players can take advantage of elements of the
colonial time period, including the ability to ally with Native Americans.
They also can explore and find new resources in the Amazon rain forest,
recover buried treasure from Caribbean islands, hunt bison on the Great
Plains, compete to establish trade routes, and fortify the coast of New
England.
- Experience stunning graphics. Players will witness new lighting effects
and shadows while immersed in a world that feels bright and sunny, yet which
has a softness and depth that is revolutionary to PC games. Thanks to the
new physics engine, players will never see the same scene twice.
- Discover culturally diverse civilizations. Gamers can play as the British and have a stellar economy, or play as the French and easily ally with Native Americans. They can choose to play as the Spanish and have more support from their home country in Europe. Players have the option of playing as one of eight civilizations and, whichever one is chosen, players are guaranteed a unique and fulfilling
