Prostagama?

$40 AU for the base game, $65 for Premium edition, but $55 pre-order price. Premium gets you the first two expansions (one of which is confirmed to be “all-new Chinese”—wonder how similar they’ll be to the Tales of the Dragon Chinese civ) free (which they say will be valued $15 US each), as well as a day-one DLC major god (which they say might cost $6 later), and a 1-week early access and a cosmetic.

Aside from the fact that I don’t love them positioning a new major god as premium content day-one—when earlier Definitive Editions gave you all the existing civs plus a couple of new ones in the base price—this Premium edition actually seems like a pretty good deal. I love that they’re committing to at least 2 expansions worth of support post-release, too.

Oh, the other interesting thing here is that the developers are listed on Steam as World’s Edge, Forgotten Empires, Tantalus Media, CaptureAge, Virtuos Games. World’s Edge is Microsoft’s subsidiary managing the Age franchise, Forgotten Empires is the main developer on all the definitive editions, with Tantalus Media supporting. Virtuos is unclear, but I wonder if they’re involved in the Xbox port.

But the really interesting bit there is CaptureAge. They build a third-party tool for AoE2, and I think they also have something for AoE4, used for viewing replays and spectating others’ games with a UI that provides more useful data for casting or for reviewing/analysing games. If they’re working to integrate it directly into the game, that’s awesome.
