Age of Mythology Retold’s 2019 release date is now confirmed. Age of Mythology was completely redesigned and released for the first time in 2002. The gameplay of this strategy game, which is a spin-off of the popular Age of Empires series, is more creative because it incorporates monsters and elements from various world mythologies. Each player selects a major god that shapes their play style, and they compete to advance through four historical “ages” in a variety of game modes.

It will probably innovate and improve upon the original game’s formula while also retaining a lot of what made it special in the first place. Here’s everything you need to know about the impending reboot of the Age of Mythology.
