This spring, the globally beloved Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition will make its debut on PlayStation 5. Alongside this release, we'll be dropping one of the most exciting DLC expansions for Age II: DE yet, packed with fresh new content, new civilizations for Ranked play, and ready for all players to enjoy together across all platforms – PC, Xbox , and PlayStation 5.

First, on March 4, Age of Mythology: Retold will expand into new myths, new cultures, and welcome new players alongside the Immortal Pillars expansion release. We will welcome PlayStation 5 players to adventure with Arkantos, choose their pantheon, and fight for divine blessings with all the same content available in the Xbox and PC versions. PlayStation 5 players will also be able to purchase Immortal Pillars, and expand their Age of Mythology: Retold experience with the all-new Chinese pantheon.

MS is fully embracing multiplat now.   i assume this was easy to port and thus got ported.   it's only older games  where the team moved on (like sunset overdrive or quantum leap) that won't get ported now as the effort probably doesn't justify the return when you have to reopen the project fresh.

Sunset overdrive is such a funny case. MS is going multiplatform, Sony owns Insomniac. Yet we aren't getting sunset overdrive. Which is a shame because I always wanted to play it.

20 years from now maybe we'll see it just like how we saw GoldenEye 007 make it's way to switch/xbox.

..or not because for the most part no one cares about sunset overdrive.
