| 2s | Prostagma! |
|---|---|
| 4s | Hello Heroes. |
| 5s | I'm here in the studio today using augmented reality |
| 8s | to step into the world of Age of Mythology Retold. |
| 11s | Yes, I am standing next to a Titan Gate and yes, |
| 13s | we will get to that very soon. |
| 15s | My name is Melinda Rose, |
| 16s | And I am the Art Director here at World's Edge. |
| 18s | and I feel so honored to be a part of this |
| 21s | team and to be able to show off this game to you |
| 24s | that we all have been working so hard on and we love so much. |
| 27s | In Age of Mythology Retold we're not only upgrading |
| 31s | the engine and bringing all of those quality of life |
| 34s | improvements that you've come to expect from World's Edge, |
| 36s | but in addition to that, we're doing even more to update the art. |
| 39s | That means all-new 3D models |
| 42s | all-new animations, textures, UI, VFX, the whole sha-bang. |
| 46s | We are going to be showing off three |
| 48s | characters from the Greek civilization Medusa, |
| 51s | Pegasus, and Cerberus. Usually you'd be seeing |
| 54s | them from high up in the sky as you |
| 55s | command your battles, but I'm biased and I wanted |
| 58s | to show the characters as close to life size as |
| 61s | we can fit them. |
| 63s | Well, without any further ado, |
| 65s | let's bring Medusa into the studio. Are you excited? |
| 68s | I am so excited. Oh, hello. This is so cool to |
| 71s | see her in real life like this. |
| 74s | She's not so low-poly anymore, is she? |
| 77s | From this distance, you're able to see all the details |
| 79s | we've added to her model to tell her story. |
| 82s | Each strand of her hair is an individual wild snake. |
| 86s | She wears Grecian-styled golden snake armbands. |
| 89s | Her armor is made up of flexible scale mail to mimic scales. |
| 92s | And if you're brave enough to get super close |
| 95s | and risk being petrified and turned to stone, |
| 97s | you can even see her vertical snake-like pupils. |
| 100s | All right, well, I don't have any good counters |
| 102s | for Medusa in the building today and we got |
| 104s | to keep this rolling, so I'm just going to cut |
| 106s | straight to her death animation. Medusa, I'm so sorry to see you go. |
| 113s | Oh, that's brutal, isn't it? |
| 116s | Well, next up let's bring in Pegasus. |
| 119s | Hi, Pegasus. |
| 121s | Oh, he's so cute, isn't he? |
| 122s | Pegasus is the majestic winged horse who serves as an archaic |
| 127s | age aerial scout for the Greek civilization. |
| 129s | This Pegasus looks a little fancier than you may |
| 132s | remember, and that is because in Age of Mythology Retold, |
| 135s | when you upgrade your |
| 136s | myth units through technologies, those units will |
| 138s | get a brand new visual upgrade to reflect that |
| 141s | increase in power. |
| 142s | So we're looking at the upgraded version today. Say hello, Pegasus. |
| 146s | Pegasus: [Nays] |
| 148s | I don't want to keep us too long |
| 149s | from the Titan that you're all excited to see |
| 152s | So, I'm sorry, Pegasus. We have to say goodbye. |
| 157s | Oh... |
| 158s | That makes me so sad. |
| 160s | All right, last but not least, let's bring in Cerberus. |
| 165s | Cerberus: [growling] |
| 166s | This is the Hound of Hades and Titan of the Greek civilization. |
| 171s | He's a little smaller, again, |
| 172s | than he will be in game, but believe it or not, |
| 175s | this was one of the first models that we made for |
| 177s | Age of Mythology Retold back when we were trying |
| 179s | to decide what we wanted this game to look like. |
| 183s | He wears heavy chains and tattered armor, |
| 185s | which represent his escape from the underworld, |
| 187s | as well as the mark of Hades on his shoulder pauldrons. |
| 189s | Titans have been upgraded to be more powerful against walls and buildings, |
| 194s | and even rivers and oceans won't be able to stop |
| 196s | their wrecking power. |
| 197s | With three ferocious heads |
| 199s | and more destructive power than ever before, |
| 201s | Cerberus will be a formidable opponent or a powerful ally in Age of Mythology Retold. |
| 206s | Cerberus: [roars] |
| 209s | Okay, well, he is obviously raring to go |
| 211s | and we will see him on the battlefield eventually. |
| 214s | I'm sorry, Cerberus, you got to get going. |
| 218s | I wish I could do that to my opponents in game. |
| 222s | So to wrap things up, our goal is to not only pay |
| 225s | homage to the past, but to breathe new life into |
| 228s | this game and maximize the mythology. |
| 230s | And one more thing before I go, I would like to reveal our |
| 233s | official cover art. |
| 235s | Featuring so many of the |
| 236s | iconic gods and heroes players will remember. |
| 241s | I am excited to announce that Age of Mythology Retold |
| 244s | will be available on day one on both PC and Xbox. |
| 250s | So follow us on socials for behind the scenes |
| 253s | concept art, as well as before and after |
| 255s | comparison images of the three models that we've |
| 257s | showcased today. And don't forget to wishlist us |
| 260s | to stay informed in the future. |
| 262s | Arkantos will awaken in 2024. |
| 266s | Thanks for watching, everyone. |
