Anyone who wants Definitive Edition (this is HD, not DE) or expects crossplay with Steam users. Disclaimer: This review is for informational and historical scene archiving purposes only. Supporting developers by purchasing Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition is always recommended.
The original Age of Empires II: HD Edition expansion The African Kingdoms (released 2015) added four new civilizations (Berbers, Ethiopians, Malians, Portuguese) and introduced new mechanics like the fire galley and battle elephants. However, the initial scene releases (by other groups) had issues. CODEX stepped in with a dedicated Crackfix , specifically targeting the v4.3.1 build.
