Age of Mythology: The Titans for Windows
adds a fourth mythology, the Atlanteans, to the existing Greek, Egyptian and
Norse mythologies. The brand new Titans
single player campaign will add
yet another chapter to the franchise's expansive folklore with the addition of
12 story-driven scenarios and in-game cinematics. Atlantean players will be able
to call upon the might of the Titan gods multiple times throughout the game, and
may also upgrade human units to heroes. The expansion pack will introduce 12 new
god powers, 18 new human units and 10 formidable myth units to the game. Age of
Mythology: The Titans may also be played with others online using the in-game
matchmaking service, ES Online (http://www.eso.com).
Age of Mythology: The Titans is an expansion pack for Age of Mythology. Using
familiar elements of classical mythology, Age of Mythology casts players as one
of nine unique civilizations from ancient Greek, Norse and Egyptian mythologies.
Players can reinforce their armies with mythological creatures like Cyclopes and
Medusas or call upon the mighty powers of gods such as Zeus to rain down
lightning bolts on unsuspecting enemies. Age of Mythology also incorporates
Ensemble Studios' trademark features from previous Age of Empires games,
including a compelling economic model, a massive army and battle system,
unequaled artificial intelligence, random maps, intuitive gameplay and extreme
attention to detail.
Age of Mythology is a branch of the popular Age of Empires franchise that has
sold more than 11.5 million licensed units worldwide. More information about Age
