"Age of Empires Mobile Unveils Innovative Mercenaries Troop System"

The legendary strategy game, *Age of Empires Mobile*, is expanding its horizons with the introduction of the innovative Mercenaries System. This new feature empowers players with greater control and strength over their armies, adding a fresh layer of strategy to the gameplay.

At Level 26, players gain access to the Mercenary Camp, where they can hire and enlist formidable mercenary units. These units come with their own unique technologies that can be unlocked and upgraded, enhancing the capabilities of these elite warriors.

Each mercenary group brings its own set of specialized 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 can claim their first Mercenaries at no cost by participating in a special event that coincides with the launch of this system.

The addition of the Mercenaries System to *Age of Empires Mobile* opens up exciting "What if" scenarios, allowing players to experiment with unique combinations of legendary heroes and different mercenary classes. Imagine Joan of Arc leading Roman Centurions or Hannibal commanding Japanese Samurai. These strategic pairings offer new ways to outmaneuver opponents and build the most formidable empire in the game.
