In a major announcement for fans of the Age of Empires and Age of Mythology series, both Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition and Age of Mythology: Retold are making their way to PlayStation 5. This move, expected to broaden the reach of both titles, allows PlayStation users to join the community of players across multiple platforms, creating a unified experience through cross-play.
Age of Mythology: Retold will launch on March 4 alongside the highly anticipated Immortal Pillars expansion. Players on PlayStation 5 will have access to all the core content from the Xbox and PC versions, including the new Chinese pantheon introduced in the expansion. For those looking for early access, the Premium Edition will be available starting February 27, offering five days of exclusive content and bonuses, including two exclusive Blessings for the Arena of the Gods mode.
This release continues the trend of uniting the Age of Mythology fanbase across platforms, with updates from March 4 onwards being available simultaneously across all platforms, including Steam, Windows Store, Xbox, and PlayStation 5.
In addition to Age of Mythology: Retold, Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition will also arrive on PlayStation 5 this spring, complete with a new DLC expansion. This release will bring new civilizations, game modes, and content for all players to enjoy. Cross-play capabilities will allow players on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC to compete and collaborate in one unified ecosystem, ensuring that no player is left behind, regardless of their chosen platform.
These announcements come just one week after the news about Forza Horizon 5, which also will see a PlayStation 5 release. This series of announcements further emphasizes the growing trend of cross-platform play, making it easier than ever for players to unite and share their passion for gaming, no matter where they decide to play.
