More than two years after launch, Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition keeps getting new goodies. The remastered strategy game has just got another major update, which brings a new co-op event, two new co-op campaigns, rewards, bug fixes, and more.
Age of Empires II: DE's Update 58259 - catchy, isn't it? - has kicked off a new co-op event that runs from, well, right now to February 14. This is offering a new bunch of challenges that in turn yield some decent in-game rewards, which you can earn by beating the set tasks within a certain time limit. In the style of similar events the devs have run before, this one gets you to complete a set of challenges in order, with five in total. You won't need to hit them all on consecutive days, but you can only complete up to a maximum of one per day, so you'll need to play on at least five different days while the event's live to nab them all.
Rewards vary by day, but include things like cheat codes that let you up your population cap or share resource around your team. There are also profile icons and a Town Centre decoration up for grabs. If you sign into Xbox Live at any time while the event's in swing you'll get to keep all of the mods and profile icons you unlock forever, so it's well worth doing if you intend to keep them.
