In that time, players have accrued a staggering 50 million hours of playtime. That\u2019s a fairly impressive statistic for what is essentially a 16 year old game, and a testament to just how good <em>Age of Empires 2<\/em> was and still is, even if it hasn\u2019t aged as well as some other titles. But that\u2019s set to change according to MS Ryz0n, a member of the game\u2019s development team.<\/p>\n<p>Not only has a newly released update, 3.9, improved a number of performance and gameplay elements, but the development team plan to add new content as well. The same team that brought the recent expansion to light <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Age_of_Empires_II:_The_Forgotten\"><em>The Forgotten<\/em><\/a>, sometimes called <em>Forgotten Empires<\/em>, are working on an all new expansion they\u2019ve yet to detail.<\/p>\n<p>Expect more details to be brought out throughout this part of the year, and perhaps a release too. It\u2019s hard to say, but at the very least there\u2019s a new <em>Age of Empires 2 HD <\/em>update to keep you occupied.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/steamcommunity.com\/app\/221380\/discussions\/1\/618458030678429044\/\">Steam Community<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is just the beginning apparently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":221,"featured_media":74009,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[13491,13493,1969,13495,85],"class_list":["post-74007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-age-of-empires-2-hd","tag-age-of-empires-ii-hd","tag-news-2","tag-progress","tag-steam"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/221"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74007"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74007\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":74011,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74007\/revisions\/74011"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74009"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
