Age of Empires 2 is the direct successor of the successful strategy game Age of Empires. Like its predecessor, it is a real-time strategy game where players can build or destroy entire civilizations. Players can construct huge cities, gather important resources, and assemble powerful armies to bring down entire empires.
The revamped version of Age of Empires 2, the Definitive Edition, is receiving a brand new expansion. The Return of Rome DLC is expected to bring many exciting new features, and fans can hardly wait. The release date for the Return of Rome DLC is May 16, 2023.
New Civilizations and More in "Return of Rome"
"Return of Rome" will be the fourth expansion for Age of Empires 2. Although no exact information about the content has been revealed yet, the title suggests that at least some new civilizations (likely based on Rome) will be added.
Rumors suggest that one of the new civilizations could be based on the Late Western Roman Empire. The title of the expansion alone hints at this possibility. If true, fans of the game can look forward to many exciting new features when "Return of Rome" is finally available!
A Preview of the DLC
Get ready for Spring/Summer 2023! The developers have not revealed many details yet, but we can be sure that the Return of Rome DLC will bring some fresh air into the already epic strategy game. New units, buildings, and technologies could help expand the tactical possibilities even further.
What We Hope For
- More Historical Battles: As with previous expansions, it would be great if "Return of Rome" also includes some historical battles or events from Roman history that we can replay.
- Unique Civilizations: We hope that the new civilizations based on Rome will receive unique units, buildings, and technologies that differentiate them from the others in the game.
- Expansion of Multiplayer: Although the multiplayer mode of Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition is already very good, it would be nice if the DLC adds further improvements or new game modes.
It remains to be seen what surprises "Age of Empires 2: Return of Rome" has in store for us. More information and details will surely be revealed before the release on May 16, 2023. We'll keep you updated!
