That brings us to Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition made by Microsoft’s Forgotten Empires team and published by Xbox Games Studio. Although I skipped the third game along with various remasters and expansions, I still remember the series fondly. I recall playing the original as well as the sequel using my cousin’s PC back in the ’90s. At the risk of starting this review with a pun, I’d have to say that it’s been ages since I last played an Age of Empires game.
