    A: It is a real time strategy game.

    Q: How many hours of gameplay does Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition offer?

    A: It includes over 200 hours of gameplay.

    Q: I wanted to buy 2 copies so my daughter and I could play via LAN. But only one copy per customer is allowed! It's a downloadable item--why is this limited? I can't buy 2 copies to play via LAN as I intended, so I will not be buying it at all.

    A: You can purchase 2 copies; I own 2 copies for the same reason. I'm not sure if you can buy them both during the same transaction because I bought mine on 2 seperate purchases. You will definitely have to download them to seperate accounts via Microsoft Store after you purchase so that you can both play. Hope this helps...

    Q: Will the "Advance Genie Editor (AGE)" work with this version? The New Updates on STEAM will no longer accept your AGE changes.

    A: undefined

      I enjoy the game

      Classic old school game. I used to play and picked it up again. I needed the tutorial to help me remember best strategies, which I would recommend. There are great tips available. A fun and easy way to spend an hour on the computer. Plus the harder levels are really challenging and you can lose, unlike some games that really just let you win, but more slowly at higher levels.

      Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition

      I played the oldest version 20 years ago. Now I've started playing it again with this new version. It's great, the graphics are sharp, and it runs smoothly on my new computer.
