Firstly, there's a new campaign as the Britons revolving around the English king Edward Longshanks.

One of the things I've always liked about Age of Empires is that you're learning a bit of history with each campaign you're playing.

I've played the expansion over the past few weeks and I'm just thrilled that there's new and, more importantly, quality content to freshen up one of the most popular strategy games ever created. Also included are three fully-voiced new single player campaigns. The Lords of the West expansion adds two additional civilizations to the 35 already in the game: the Burgundians and the Sicilians. As we wrote in our Age of Empires: II Definitive Edition review, the updated 4K Ultra-HD graphics, the remastered soundtrack and lots of new content make this a highly enjoyable remake, especially if you're a fan of the original.
