The Lords of the West Have Arrived in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, Available Now

by Ian Stevens, Senior Program Manager, World’s Edge

Summary

  • The Lords of the West DLC is available now on the Microsoft Store and Steam
  • Includes two new civilizations in three new fully-voiced campaigns and 16 new achievements
  • Xbox Game Pass members can use their member discount to save 10%

A new year is upon us and what better way to celebrate than by challenging your friends in battle with two new civilizations and testing your mettle and strategy in three new fully-voiced campaigns! The Lords of the West expansion is available now for Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition on the Microsoft Store and Steam!

In addition to the 16 new achievements, here are some of the features you can look forward to in the Lords of the West expansion…

Burgundian Civilization
A cavalry civilization specializing in economic development. Take advantage of the ability to perform economic upgrades one age earlier than other civilizations, stable technologies cost 50% less, and gunpowder units gain 25% attack.

Sicilian Civilization
An infantry civilization specializing in city building and defensive capabilities to fuel their relentless drive for expansion. Build Donjons for additional fortifications around your towns, employ the First Crusade technology to spawn batches of the unique Serjeant unit in all Town Centers and utilize the Scutage technology to refill you and your team members’ battle coffers with 15 gold for each military unit you own.

Edward Longshanks Campaign
Edward I is widely considered as one of England’s greatest rulers, mentioned in the same breath as Alfred the Great and Elizabeth I.  Known as “Longshanks” for his height and intimidating stature, he was a man that commanded respect as he transformed England from a tattered state into a prominent European power.

The Grand Dukes of the West Campaign
The Burgundian dukes are driven by ambition and greed. They lead an extremely luxurious life and need to constantly expand their domains to pay for it. Image and publicity mean everything to them. Philip the Bold earned his nickname after the defeat at Poitiers and John the Fearless earned his after a defeat in the Crusades, so these dukes know the importance of propaganda.

The Hautevilles Campaign
Robert Guiscard arrived in Italy in 1047 CE with a robber-band of 35 men. Within a century, his Hauteville family included dukes in Italy, princes in the Middle East, and even the King of Sicily. Join this intrepid family of Norman adventurers and complete their unlikely and compelling story.

Burgundians
Rise from a mere duchy to the marvel of Western Europe through economic might, cultural achievement, and the use of advanced military technology and tactics.

The dukes of Burgundy played a vital role in the politics of medieval Western Europe. They led the transformation from the medieval to the early modern world and ushered in a golden age for the region called the Northern Renaissance. At their height, these “Grand Dukes of the West” controlled large parts of modern-day France, Belgium, The Netherlands, and Luxembourg.  Carving a new polity out of French, English, and Holy Roman domains was a daunting task that came with a high price: decades of war and bloodshed. However, the Burgundians knew to use more than just warfare to get what they wanted. Their diplomatic and marriage policies proved to be even stronger than their swords.

  • Cavalry civilization
  • Economic upgrades are available one Age earlier than other civs
  • Stable technologies cost -50%
  • Gunpowder units gain +25% attack
  • Cavalier upgrade available in the Castle Age

Unique Technologies

  • Flemish Revolution – Upgrades all existing Villagers into Flemish Militia, allows creation of Flemish Militia at Town Centres.

Sicilians
Experience the diverse cultures and martial spirit of the Mediterranean’s crossroads as you build one of the most coveted kingdoms of medieval Europe. Robert Guiscard arrived in Italy in 1047 CE with a robber-band of 35 men. Within a century, his Hauteville family included dukes in Italy, princes in the Middle East, and even the King of Sicily. Join this intrepid family of Norman adventurers and complete their unlikely and compelling story, starting with Robert Guiscard’s arrival in Italy to his nephew Roger II’s consolidation of the Hauteville lands into the Kingdom of Sicily.

The Italo-Normans, as the conquerors and rulers in Norman Italy and Sicily are now known, were successful on the battlefield because of their fierce disposition, vigorous military tradition, keen affinity for tactics and the use of cunning, and sheer torrid speed. In these, they most closely resembled their Viking and Frankish forebears, but as they settled in Italy and Sicily they embraced local cultural customs and norms of governance.

World of Tanks Introduces Its First Update for 2021

Featuring: Italian heavy tanks, a modified Platoon system, and interface improvements

The beginning of a new year is the right time to start a new journey with fresh content and features deploying in World of Tanks. Update 1.11.1 brings a new sub-branch of Italian heavy tanks with an improved autoreloading mechanic to the game. The updated Platoon system will allow you to find gaming buddies easier (without being limited to friends and contacts), and a few interface improvements make the gameplay even more enjoyable.

The new Italian heavy branch begins with the Tier VII Carro d’assalto P.88 and consists of four vehicles with great gun depression angles, well-armoured turrets, and stylish exteriors. The top animal in the pack, the Tier X Rinoceronte (‘Rhinoceros’), reminds us that Italy is famous for its automotive design traditions. A distinctive feature introduced with the new sub-branch is the improved autoreloading mechanic. As well as being able to choose between firing intermittent shots or salvos, with Tier VIII–X Italian heavies you get a rebate (up to 50%) for the reloading time of your next shell—if you had to shoot just before an extra round would be fully loaded into the clip.

Along with the new branch, four sets of battle missions are being introduced, each one dedicated to a separate tank in the sub-branch and giving out an Ancient Roman-themed emblem, inscription, and decal as rewards, with the Rinoceronte set also yielding the “Testudo Formation” 2D style. The style fits Italian vehicles only, and all other customisation elements can be applied to any vehicle. Each mission set is to be completed by its ‘own’ new Italian heavy, but all of them are also doable in the Rinoceronte or in the Tier VIII Premium tank, the Bisonte C45. A fifth customisation collection will also be available, exclusive to Twitch Drops – check back on the Portal in the coming days for more information.

“Around 3 years ago, in May 2018, we revealed the Italian tech tree, with Gianluigi Buffon as an ambassador,” says Max Chuvalov, World of Tanks Publishing Director. “The players spent some time mastering the new mechanic, and they really liked the Italian tanks. Now we’re adding new researchable vehicles that not only complement the Italian tree, but bring their own distinctive features, in order to make the experience even more diverse and exciting. Take these awesome machines for a spin and enjoy the highly-tactical gameplay!”

Also coming with Update 1.11.1 is the Platoon 2.0 system. Available for Random Battles, it allows you to find battle buddies with ease: it’s fully automated, and the search can be performed using filters you apply. Moreover, you can team up with a friend the old-fashioned way and find a third partner using the new system if you want, and once the Platoon is complete, you’ll see the allied vehicles side by side with your current ride in your Garage.

The interface improvements that will arrive along with the update continue the tradition of integrating the best solutions from popular UI mods into the client. In the game settings, you can now activate such options as the Proximity spotting circle (showing the radius of ‘unconditional’ spotting on the mini-map) and a repair timer for damaged vehicle modules.

Fight tactically in the new Italians alongside your new buds, earn the new Roman style and don’t let any brutes stab you in the back! If you need more info on Update 1.11.1, take a look here:

XSEED Games Releases Mustachioed Spearman, Anre, for Granblue Fantasy: Versus on PlayStation 4 and PC

XSEED Games, the independent-minded publishing brand of Marvelous USA, Inc. today announced that Anre joins the cast of playable fighters in Granblue Fantasy: Versus, the head-to-head fighter set in the world of Cygames’ hit mobile game Granblue Fantasy, on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and Windows PC via Steam. The fourth character released as part of the six-character Character Pass 2, Anre comes with a lobby avatar, character icon, and additional RPG mode quests. The character can be purchased separately for $6.99 or as part of the Character Pass 2 DLC bundle priced at $34.99. For more information, please see the patch notes for version 2.31.

One of the Eternals, and the only sage of their number, Anre works to protect the balance of peace as he wields his power in the hopes of one day ridding the world of sadness. While he dislikes fighting, no matter the outcome of his battles, his prowess with a spear is unmatched and more than makes up for his shorter stature. The last thing the enemies of peace will see when confronting Anre will be the tip of his spear, or maybe his fabulous facial hair that he has grown a bit obsessed with.

Developed by Cygames and ARC SYSTEM WORKS and published on PS4™ system in North America and on Windows PC via Steam globally by XSEED Games, Granblue Fantasy: Versus is currently available for purchase for $59.99 on both platforms.
