by Layla Apr 14,2025

The legendary strategy game series, *Age of Empires Mobile*, is expanding its horizons with the introduction of the innovative Mercenaries System, offering players enhanced control and strategic depth over their armies. As you progress to Level 26, you'll unlock the Mercenary Camp, a pivotal feature that allows you to enlist and recruit formidable mercenary units. These units come with exclusive technologies that you can unlock and upgrade, further boosting your army's prowess.

Each mercenary group brings its own unique set of skills to the battlefield, enhancing your tactical options:

Byzantine Cataphract:

  • Increase the damage of all hero skills of the army by [2%]
  • After the troops inflict skill damage, all damage received by our troops is reduced by [3.5%] for [3] seconds

Swiss Pikeman:

Korean Archer:

Players can easily get their first taste of these powerful Mercenaries for free by participating in the new event that's currently live alongside the system's launch.

The Mercenaries System not only adds a layer of strategic depth but also introduces fascinating "What if" scenarios. Imagine the legendary Joan of Arc leading Roman Centurions into battle, or Hannibal commanding Japanese Samurai. These unique combinations allow players to experiment with different tactical approaches, forging new paths to victory and empire-building in *Age of Empires Mobile*.
