In this highly anticipated next installment in the Age of Empires franchise
from Ensemble Studios, Age of Empires III places players in the time period of roughly
1500–1850, picking up where Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings left off. As players
work to establish their empire, they take on the role of a European power struggling to
explore, colonize, and conquer North and South America. Age of Empires III introduces
exciting new gameplay elements, including the all-new Home City and an incredible combat
system. Players have new civilizations to discover, random maps to conquer, and a
single-player campaign unlike any other. Players also find stunning graphics as a result
of a revolutionary graphics engine that pushes the limits of PC graphics technology in
an entirely new way.
