Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition is back with an exciting new DLC called The Mountain Royals, and it’s time to embark on a journey through history. This expansion pack delves into the untold stories and rich history of two remarkable civilizations, the Georgians and the Armenians. Brace yourself for epic battles, strategic conquests, and a whole new level of gameplay.

Let’s start with the Georgians. Carving out a sturdy kingdom in the shadow of the majestic Caucasus Mountains, the Georgians know how to use the rugged terrain to their advantage. With the Monaspa as their unique unit, a brawny cavalry unit that gains strength in numbers, they are ready to repulse countless foreign invasions. During the early medieval period, the region south of the Caucasus Mountains was divided among petty kingdoms, but unity gradually emerged in the form of the Kingdom of Georgia under the reign of Bagrat III in the 11th century.

Now, let’s turn our attention to the Armenians. Rebuilding their ancestral kingdom in the mountainous terrain near Lakes Van, Sevan, and Urmia, the Armenians face their own challenges. Their unique units, the Composite Bowman and the Warrior Priest, bring a formidable combination of archery skills and healing abilities to the battlefield. Caught in the midst of conflicts between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Sasanian Persian Empire, Armenia fought to maintain its independence and protect its Christian population. The Battle of Avarayr in 451, where Vardan Mamikonian sacrificed his life defending his homeland, remains etched in Armenian national lore.

But that’s not all! The Persians are also receiving a massive free update to their gameplay alongside The Mountain Royals DLC. Traverse the highlands with their fearsome cavalry, including the unique Savar unit that excels at taking down enemy ranged units. Prepare for an enhanced Persian experience that will leave you hungry for more conquests.

In addition to the new civilizations, The Mountain Royals DLC offers three thrilling campaigns that will test your strategic skills and immerse you in captivating narratives. Experience Tamar’s Ascension, where the young and ambitious Queen Tamar takes the throne of Georgia, facing challenges and skeptics along the way. Join Prince Thoros in his quest to liberate Cilician Armenia from Byzantine captivity, while also dealing with the ambitions of the Seljuk Turks and a cunning Frankish crusader. And finally, lead the Safavid Order through war-torn Persia as the prodigy Ismail, laying the groundwork for a grand empire.
