For just $ 19,99, the game promises hundreds of hours of playtime. But before enjoying it, you must first Age of Empires Definitive Edition agrees to get started. As several users report, in many cases video game unfortunately does not work. As a result, the comments section of the Windows Store was buried under criticism.

In just a few hours, the game's rating literally collapsed. At the time of this writing, Age of Empires Definitive Edition is stagnating at less than 3 stars on the Windows Store. “It's 8:00 am on the game's release day… don't start yet I have the necessary configuration by far!” says one of the comments. While not all players seem to be affected by the bug, it is apparently very widespread. “I was able to play last night and since this morning, I launch the game and it closes directly, Microsoft you are really disappointing a little more every day” laments another player.




For now, Microsoft has yet to make any official comments. We do not yet know the cause of this bug. Microsoft's assistance is in fact limited to advising injured players to uninstall and reinstall the video game. Did you encounter installation or launch problems? Would you rather wait until Age of Empires IV, a new episode that will be released 13 years after the 3rd?
