I was dimly aware that Age of Empires II had a really well-done modern remaster, and was getting new and updated content as if it were a current title. I was unprepared for just how beautiful it all looks at 4K, however! I know every asset has been completely redone, but the art design really holds up. I would *love* to see more 2D classics like Red Alert 2 get the same kind of high-quality treatment, with remastered assets and brand-new DLC campaigns. Revisit and continue games long-abandoned

I need to find some nice ready-made maps to take some better screenshots, but I'm very impressed so far. In an industry that is so often filled with quick and dirty cash-grabs, it's real nice to see a labor of love like this. Two thumbs up for Age of Empires II Definitive Edition (…which is $5 in the Steam sale this week!)

@stroughtonsmith So many childhood memories. Looks gorgeous! I *think* I’d love this on the iPhone so I can play it when I have some time here and there.
