Command Asian Civilizations in Strategic Warfare:
Lead one of three unique Asian civilizations -- Japan, China and India -- each with their own assortment of civ-specific units such as Samurai, Flamethrowers, and War Elephants, that impact how they are played. Inspired by Asia's history, the expansion includes not only authentic units but also maps and buildings that reflect each civilization's history and culture from that time.

Experience New Ways to play Age of Empires III:
Extending upon the innovative gameplay of Age of Empires III, The Asian Dynasties will introduce 15 new Wonders with unique powers that are built to advance in age, Consulates which allow trade with other civilizations for supporting units, and new ways of winning, including remixes of classic Age of Empires game styles: Regicide, and King of the Hill.

Immerse yourself in Asia's Rich History:
The Asian Dynasties features a return to historical, civilization-based single-player campaigns, Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties will offer gamers who enjoy the solo experience a chance to unite Japan under the Tokugawa Shogun, battle the British East India Company in India's first war of independence or, in a campaign inspired by recent discoveries, turn China's Ming Dynasty treasure fleets towards the exploration of the Americas.
