    It’s pretty clear there’s a pattern. With a legacy in games like Dark Reign and KKnD, the work on the Age of Empires remasters and now the abundance of talent in Age of Darkness, it’s obvious: Australia is really good at making real-time strategy games.

    Already, Age of Darkness is pretty impressive. That alone is a huge accomplishment, not just because the genre desperately needs more standout titles, but because it’s such a rapid departure from what the Melbourne developers have made their careers on. Around 12 hours was more than enough time to see why Team17 was happy to throw millions of dollars at PlaySide for the publishing rights.

    Age of Darkness isn’t just good for an early access game, or for an Australian game. It’s just good, full stop.
