Older updates
There have been some interesting exchanges via Twitter between Jez Corden, Editor for Windows Central, and Jeff Grubb, Editor for GamesBeat.
On March 25th, Jez Corden tweeted that "Age of Mythology was pretty cool", and Jeff Grubb answered with "It could be cool again". For the fanbase, this clearly sounded like a leak about a possible announcement for a remake or a Definitive Edition of the game.
Finally, when a user said "even just console ports of og ones would be awesome", Jez Corden again answered with "that would be pretty cool...".

Age of Mythology is a game made by Ensemble Studios and Microsoft Games in 2002. In 2014 came out the Extended Edition of the game. Between 2018 and 2021 came out the Definitive Editions of Age of Empires 1, 2 and 3, and Age of Empires 4 came out in 2022, all made by Forgotten Empires and Relic Entertainment. They were great years for this franchise!
As of today it is kinda hard to play old titles like these, and sometimes even frustrating. Luckily enough, Microsoft Games did not forget about AoM!
We just need to wait!
In the meantime, here are some videos from the previous Definitive Editions!
