The Age of Empires III: Complete Collection announced

Microsoft Game Studios today announced that a new Age of Empires III compilation package is coming to retail nationwide. Dubbed Age of Empires III: Complete Collection, the package includes the original game plus two expansion packs, Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties and Age of Empires III: War Chiefs, developed collaboratively by Big Huge Games and Ensemble Studios for the PC.

The Age of Empires III: Complete Collection will be offered at the estimated retail price of $49.95 (€54.99). It kind of makes me sad to think that the next Age of Empires game definitely won’t be developed by either Ensemble Studios (who have been broken up into different little start-ups) or Big Huge Games (purchased by 38 Studios).
