Age of Empires Mobile Unveils Innovative Mercenaries Troop System

The iconic strategy franchise, *Age of Empires Mobile*, is expanding its horizons with the introduction of a new Mercenaries System. This innovative feature empowers players with greater control and enhanced capabilities over their armies, adding a fresh layer of strategic depth to the game.

Unlocking the Mercenary Camp at Level 26, players gain the ability to contract and recruit formidable mercenary units. These units come with exclusive technologies that can be unlocked and upgraded, providing a significant boost to your forces. Each mercenary group brings its own unique set of skills to the battlefield, making them invaluable assets in your quest for dominance.

Byzantine Cataphract:

• Increase the damage of all hero skills of the army by [2%]
• After the troops inflict skill damage, all damage received by our troops is reduced by [3.5%] for [3] seconds

Swiss Pikeman:

• Increase the probability of triggering the hero’s pursuit/active skills of all troops by [1%]
• Reduce all damage received by troops by [2%]

Korean Archer:

• Increase the probability of triggering the hero’s pursuit/active skills of all troops by [1%]
• Reduce all damage received by troops by [2%]

Players can kickstart their mercenary journey by securing their first Mercenaries for free through a new event, which is currently live alongside the system's launch.

The addition of the Mercenaries System to *Age of Empires Mobile* introduces exciting "What if" scenarios, allowing players to pair their favorite legendary heroes with various mercenary classes. Imagine the strategic possibilities: What if Joan of Arc commanded Roman Centurions? Or what if Hannibal led Japanese Samurai? These combinations open up a world of tactical gameplay, enabling players to conquer their foes and build the mightiest empire imaginable.
