Our community is important to us, as is player feedback. At this stage of development, we’re interested in getting Age of Mythology: Retold into the hands of the player to:

• Share your ideas on how to best grow Age of Mythology: Retold post-launch. While our primary focus during closed beta is to ensure stability and lend overall polish to the game by conquering impactful bugs, we’re also eager to hear your thoughts. The Age of Mythology: Retold team is dedicated to continually improving and growing the game while making sure it stays true to the roots of the Age of Mythology you know and love. As a beta participant, you help guide our vision.
