Real-Time Royalty — Age of Empire II: Definitive Edition is Out Now on macOS

A new era dawns: Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, one of the most beloved real-time strategy games of all time, is now available natively for modern Macs via Steam.

First released in 1999 and perfected over 25 years (and counting!), Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition is the latest iteration of the game, and comes complete with razor-sharp 4K visuals, all-new animations, quality-of-life improvements and a remastered soundtrack. Also included as standard are the expansions, “Lords of the West,” “Dynasties of India,” and “Dawn of the Dukes”.

A large — and still-growing — stable of DLC is also available for macOS players to purchase. From Return of Rome, which transplants the original Age of Empires experience into the Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition engine, to The Last Chieftains, exploring the complex medieval societies of South America — it’s all waiting to be discovered.

To find out more about this titan of the RTS genre, head over to our blog where we offer a Newcomer’s Guide, an Age of Empires Retrospective and detailed descriptions of all the DLC.

Or, if you’re ready, seize the day, and head to Steam to purchase Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition on macOS today for $34.99 / £25.99 / 32,99 €.

It’s the Eye of the Tigress: Bhashiva — Character Pack Out Now for Total War: WARHAMMER III on macOS and Linux

A new challenger approaches the Old World’s Maelstrom of conflict and chaos!

The Bhashiva Character Pack introduces a new Legendary Lord to the Grand Cathay. The Tiger Warriors are a proud, ancient martial culture, and sworn allies of the Dragon Lords of Cathay.

Ruling from the Tiger Court, their Lord is Bhashiva, a duellist built to cut through infantry and enemy Heroes alike — striking hard and fast with flame-imbued attacks.

If you own Total War: WARHAMMER or WARHAMMER II, but you’ve not yet purchased the WARHAMMER III base game, the Bhashiva Character Pack also unlocks the Grand Cathay faction for use in the Immortal Empires Campaign.

Today also sees the release of the free Update 8.0 for Total War: WARHAMMER III on macOS and Linux. Head to the Total War blog for all the details, but don’t miss Taoyan the Merciless — the free Legendary Hero. A favoured general of the Iron Dragon, she can be recruited by any Grand Cathay Legendary Lord. Specialised in slaying fearsome single-entity beasts, she is an asset to any faction who win her loyalty.

Update to 8.0 today, and head to the Steam Store to add the Bhashiva Character Pack to your collection for $4.99 / £3.99 / 4,99 €.
