Age of Empires III will offer gamers the next level of realism, with advanced battle physics and unparalleled visual detail. The new game picks up where Age of Empires II: Age of Kings left off, placing gamers in the position of a European power determined to explore, colonize and conquer the New World. This time period features stunning scenes, from towering European cathedrals to courageous tribes of Native Americans, and spectacular combat with Industrial Age units like rifled infantry, cavalry and tall ships bristling with cannons.

Ensemble Studios announced Age of Empires III two days ago. I’m very interested since I met my wife playing the original Age of Empires on-line. I love all RTS (real-time strategy) games, but this series holds a special place in my heart.

Typical of the gaming industry, there is no release date. When one is announced, it will be wrong.
