Microsoft Game Studios and Ensemble Studios announced that they are working on an extension to the series' third enstallment. Age of Empires III received quite some criticism, as experienced gamers expected much, múch more from it.

Time to set things right, they must be thinking, as the xpack will hold a completely new singleplayer campaign as well as three new indian civilizations. On top of this, new content will be added to the existing nations; home cities will gain new content.

If all goes well, the extension should be available somewhere this fall.
