Where to Buy

Can often still be found on store shelves as "Age of Empires Collector's Editon", which contains the following games on one DVD-disk:

  • Age of Empires
  • Age of Empires : Rise of Rome Expansion
  • Age of Empires II : Age of Kings
  • Age of Empires II : The Conquerors

Due to faulty file management on the DVD-disk, problems can be encountered:

While playing Age of Empires (and Expansion) the games freezes for a second, every time the background music track changes. Disabling the music via settings is the only solution.

Ingame color looks odd

Latest Patches

For Age Empires: 1.0c

For Age of Empires: Rise of Rome: 1.0a

Note: Age of Empires: Rise of Rome 1.0a suffers from a serious savegame related bug: If a projectile (arrow from archers, ships, towers, siege weapons) is "flying" through the air while saving a game, the savegame becomes corrupted. Loading the savegame will crash the game.
