Not sure why the direct link does not work, I have tried to update it and it appears correctly in the URL box, but as you say it goes straight through to the Microsoft site. Apologies, but link in the post should work.

Is this really a remaster of the first game...? That sounds absurd, who would'nt rather play one of the two newer games! (I've been a big fan of AoE2 for like, a decade)

how sad.... where is the PC version?? AOE was never made for consoles and will never be great on a console.
How sad indeed.

Thanks for posting. It might be helpful to add 'xbox one' to the title, for those that have keyword alerts for that kind of thing?

Is this definitely for Xbox One? Just watched the E3 2017 anounce trailer for this and it doesn't mention Xbox One anywhere, at the end it just says it's for Windows 10. So it looks like the Xbox login they want is just for the multiplayer element, plus if you have an Xbox login, you probably use it for Windows too.

your missing the point, they are bigging up AOE at the yet disregarding its main platform. Playing rts on a console is like trying to pick your nose with a sledgehammer, it just doesnt work.

I have just completed a survey for the beta and it is asking for my PC set up because they want to ensure it runs on the widest possible set of hardware, so looks like it is coming to PC.

OP - Pretty sure this is for PC? I couldn't see anything on the AOE site mentioning console.

When I signed up I had to take a survey which requested PC specs. I couldn't find any other reference. So I am not 100%. You do need an xbox live account, but I needed that for Gears Of War 4 on PC as well.
