This post contains affiliate links. OzBargain might earn commissions when you click through and make purchases. Please see this page for more information.

This is definitely a pricing error considering the Deluxe Edition is $119.95 on Steam, representing a 77% saving, the previous deal for this was over $60 more through Humble Bundle back in 2021. The Standard Edition is also more than twice the price on GMG.

This first requires a VPN to USA to allow access to the page, you can checkout through Paypal or credit card as required and a you will receive a Steam Product Key.

For those having trouble checking out. I used Nord VPN connected to USA #8857, Chrome browser and was logged into GMG with my account, checked out using Paypal. I have now bought five copies for friends and all working fine.

Happy Dealing!

    Fantastic game! The campaign mode is really cool - re-enating pivotal battles throughout history, along with interesting info and videos on medieval times. I'm thoroughly enjoying it :)

        Any chance you could grab one for me? Happy to pay via PayID. I can't seem to get to get it to stay in the cart.

            @Pelicannn: Must be the VPN. :P

            I think I got it working though, but I just wanted to confirm you haven't bought it for me before I put the order through, otherwise no issue, I can grab it off you. Thanks!

                To anybody having issues, I used the TunnelBear extension and signed into GmG and was able to purchase using PayPal. I had an issue where the item wouldn't stay in the cart unless I was logged in. Everything redeemed perfectly!

      • Larsson on 12/07/2022 - 12:58

        is it Nord VPN not working than? how did you do it ?? :D

      The regular version is, not the Deluxe Edition. However for those who don't like subscriptions this is the way to go.

      Cries in Netflix, Stan, Disney, Prime, Youtube and Spotify

      • snoopydoop on 12/07/2022 - 13:54

        This price worthwhile for a "deluxe" upgrade if I have GP for 3 years?

        • Pelicannn on 12/07/2022 - 13:55

          Ehhh. I’m not too sure. If you are only using Game Pass for AOE? Maybe buy you won’t realise savings for years given you have so long to go on GP.

          I just looked up what it gets you, nothing really.

          "The Digital Deluxe Edition includes everything from Age of Empires IV, plus digital bonus content which includes the official Age of Empires IV soundtrack, Unit Counters Chart, art compilation from digital painter Craig Mullins, and exclusive in-game content including a Coat of Arms, Player Profile portrait, and Monument."

    Got it, great deal even tho it's still expensive. Never got around to playing AoE2 when I was young so I have both 2 and 4 now. Excited to get into it

    Thanks OP!

      Problem is finding the time to play. I just hope this one won’t just sit there collecting dust like my AOE2 Definition.

        I am exactly in the same situation. Buying all this hoping one day I’ll have enough time play more than just few mins and actually get immersed in it.

      • Klemay on 12/07/2022 - 21:57

        They just give you a code to enter into steam for each game. I gave the other codes to my friends and they paid me back.

        Yeah I usually do a comparison before I choose a payment method but just went with my card this time. Still a killer deal though!

      • amberstyre on 12/07/2022 - 14:52

        Paypal was showing $28.55 for me, so I used Commbank card and paid $27.41 as well

        • Pelicannn on 12/07/2022 - 15:07

          Interesting given PayPal only update their rates daily I believe.

          I used a linked AMEX to my PayPal so perhaps that is why slightly different.

            @Pelicannn: You can choose for the exchange rate to be either through paypal or the credit card provider.
            The credit card provider is always cheaper than paypal.

    I love this game & have been playing for about 8 months. Unfortunately the player numbers have dropped from 40K ish to around 5000 concurrent on steam and (I assume) something similar on gamepass. There are things wrong in terms of balance, but when two players are on even footing and are giving everything it's great fun. The SP campaign has been touted as great but for some reason I can't be bothered with it- and I say that as a history buff and doco addict. It needs more personality and characters, like AOE 2, AOM or AOE 3. YMMV. Multiplayer is where the fun is at, with very competitive 1v1 modes and 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 modes with lots of features and variety being added every few months. If you intend on playing MP my two pieces of advice are 1) don't do it unless you can beat the AI on the hardest difficulty and 2) pick french, english or mongols. They have the strongest early game units and bonuses and are very forgiving. For example, Mongols don't even need to build houses and can get an attack going almost immediately. I say point 1) because the hardest AI is roughly equivalent to a 1000 ELO player. Therefore, if it is really beating you, your MP experience will be 10 losses in a row until you get matched with another beginner. For 2), most mid level players will use extremely frustrating tactics against you like building towers on your villagers or raiding you non-stop. The best way to mitigate this is to be the attacking player.

    • Lockieasy on 12/07/2022 - 15:43

      People turtling with walls really killed my interest in the multiplayer as the games would just frustratingly drag on. :( Glad you're enjoying it though.

      • naturaldecay on 12/07/2022 - 16:28

        When did you stop? I think roughly a month ago they doubled construction time for stone walls, and made it so that the foundation can be attacked as they're being built. With the latest patch they're reducing the amount of stone in stone outcroppings too. I also usually lose turtle-y games where the enemy can snowball keeps to secure stone, and then use that to build further keeps and walls! The best answer I found is to kill the baby in the cradle- park a scout near their stone at the beginning of the game and see how much they're mining. The very fact that they're mining stone early means you can guaranteed get a bigger army and deny its construction.

        • Lockieasy on 15/07/2022 - 16:07

          Oh okay. I might try it again then. I stopped playing it maybe a couple of months after launch (after I finished the campaigns).

      Yup just saw Paypal refund email for mine as well. If already redeemed I assume it will disappear from Steam account soon. I think keys have been revoked previously from Valve authorised resellers who had price errors. Although, those were accidentally made free rather than a super low price. But we'll see.

      Did you download it and test it as well? Maybe that's the difference, why I haven't been refunded…
