A handheld version of PC classic real-time-strategy game Age of Empires is heading to the Nintendo DS.
Age of Empires: Mythologies is scheduled to debut in fall 2008 and promises to allow players to "strategize as legendary heroes, commanding massive armies and shaping the destinies of three unique cultures in both single and multi-player campaigns."
"With three playable civilizations, a fast-paced combat system and extensive multi-player options, Age of Empires: Mythologies will be one of the must-have tactical strategy games this year, " said Kevin Kraff, vice president of global brand management at game developer THQ.
Let's hope THQ does a good job with this one--the combination of a complicated RTS and the Nintendo DS stylus could result in either a killer portable strategy solution or a frustrating mess.
