- Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition получила масштабное обновление - вместе с DLC The Baltic Powers - 21 September 2026
Разработчики Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition выпустили крупное обновление, которое приурочено к выходу нового DLC The Baltic Powers. Патч приносит не только долгожданные исправления, но и массу нового контента, улучшений интерфейса и значительных изменений баланса. Одним из самых заметных улучшений стало уменьшение размера игры на 10 ГБ за счёт оптимизации текстур. Разработчики также внедрили дополнительные античит-меры для честной онлайн-игры. Значительно переработан режим наблюдателя: новый интерфейс показывает детальную статистику по командам, включая совокупную численность населения, уничтоженные и потерянные юниты, а также сравнение собранных ресурсов. Очередь отправленных карт теперь отображается в отдельной панели. Для любителей управлять колодами добавлены горячие клавиши (создание, сохранение, копирование и удаление колод), а также возможность просматривать карты революц…

- Civilization Deep Dive: Poles - 21 August 2026
The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was one of the greatest territorial states in 17th century Europe stretching from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea.
