| 4s | Tycoon is a brand new game mode that puts the focus on economic superiority |
|---|---|
| 8s | over military domination. Free from the pressure of direct head-to-head aggressive play, this new mode |
| 14s | encourages economic expansion and exploration, opening the door to a slew of new strategies |
| 19s | and tactics not present in any other game mode throughout Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition. |
| 24s | At the beginning of the match, a score target is set—when the first player or team reaches |
| 29s | this score limit, the match is over and players will receive a victory position equal to their |
| 33s | score ranking. Points are earned by collecting resources, constructing economic buildings, |
| 38s | researching technologies and advancing, but most importantly, competing to claim |
| 43s | challenge rewards. These challenges are only available for a limited time, but have huge |
| 48s | rewards will give you a serious edge against the competition. Each of these challenges has |
| 52s | a first, second, and third place reward, but each with diminishing returns. Balancing your overall |
| 58s | expansion strategy while pursuing these challenges is key—prepare your decks and strategy accordingly! |
| 64s | Despite not receiving any points for constructing military buildings or training military units, |
| 69s | trading posts, wild hunt, and other natural resources still need to be claimed and defended |
| 73s | if you want a chance at scoring the top spot. In Tycoon, any trained military units will slowly |
| 79s | lose health, similar to the militiamen from the Town Center's Levy. This will still give |
| 83s | you enough time to tear down your opponent's trading posts or push them off a nearby herd of |
| 86s | wild hunt, but directly engaging your opponent's town will be a futile battle. |
| 92s | We hope you enjoy the twist on classic gameplay this new mode brings to the table. |
| 97s | Tycoon will be available to everyone with the Knights of the Mediterranean expansion for Age of Empires 3: Definitive Edition! |
