The legendary strategy franchise continues to evolve with the introduction of the new Mercenaries System in *Age of Empires Mobile*, empowering players with greater control and strength over their armies.
Players can unlock the Mercenary Camp upon reaching Level 26, enabling them to contract and recruit formidable mercenary units. Additionally, they can unlock and enhance technologies unique to these elite warriors, further boosting their army's capabilities.
Each mercenary group brings a distinct set of special skills to the battlefield:
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:
- Increase the probability of triggering the hero's pursuit/active skills of all troops by [1%]
- Reduce all damage received by troops by [2%]
Korean Archer:
- Increase the probability of triggering the hero's pursuit/active skills of all troops by [1%]
- Reduce all damage received by troops by [2%]
Players have the opportunity to secure their first Mercenaries at no cost by participating in a special event, which is currently active alongside the system's launch.
This exciting addition to *Age of Empires Mobile* also introduces thrilling "What if" scenarios, allowing players to experiment with pairing their favorite legendary heroes with various mercenary classes. Imagine the strategic possibilities: What if Joan of Arc led Roman Centurions? Or what if Hannibal commanded Japanese Samurai? These innovative combinations open up new avenues for tactical gameplay, helping players to conquer their enemies and build the grandest empire imaginable.
