Our Age of Empires III gallery has been updated with four beautiful screenshots, illustrating this upcoming 3D real-time strategy game. The latest installment of the series picks up where Age of Empires II: Age of Kings left off, placing gamers in the position of a European power determined to explore, colonize and conquer the New World. This time period features stunning scenes, from towering European cathedrals to courageous tribes of Native Americans, and spectacular combat with Industrial Age units like rifled infantry, cavalry and tall ships bristling with cannons. The game will contain new game-play elements, including the concept of a “Home City,“ new civilizations, units, technologies and an immersive new single-player campaign that will span three generations. One of the most interesting additions is the Havok physics engine, so you will see rag-doll effects on bodies or buildings and other objects on the map behaving naturally in different situations.
