“On Monday, August 21, starting at 9:00pm CEST, 12:00pm PDT, Microsoft will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Age of Empires franchise with a special livestream event in Cologne, alongside some of our biggest fans. The livestream will celebrate the rich history of the beloved PC game series, as well as give fans a first-look at Age of Empires: Definitive Edition, the beautifully remastered edition of this bona fide classic we announced at E3 last month. We’ll be talking all things Age of Empires with some of the legendary developers who worked on the games as well as sharing some exciting news that fans will not want to miss — watch on mixer.com or through the Mixer app.”
Can’t wait, thanks for keeping us up to date 
They teased exciting news for Gamescom at the PC Gaming show as well for Age of Empires, some people hoping for an announcement of IV, but it’d be kinda odd announcing it before Definitive Edition is out.

Agree
Most likely the release of AoE: DE will be announced as well and if not, beta will be.
Maybe they’ll announce that you can still sign up for the beta and to dm them if you don’t get the survey hehehe…
The official Age of Empires blog post just dropped for this announcement.
Should be good. I’ll swap some classes around so I don’t miss the stream!

If they announce the closed beta is coming soon at Gamescom, I’m going to give Microsoft a big virtual eyeroll.

‘give fans a first-look at Age of Empires: Definitive Edition’
It does feel like a time warp, haven’t we already had the E3 Trailer for the first look? Perhaps they will announce a new AOK expansion, what they should do is announce one called ‘Rise of the Raja’s’ 
I look forward to seeing the new gameplay, and the news to come!
Note: I wanted to know if they will post on the official AOE channel on Youtube, because I do not know if I can watch the live broadcast!

They really must, but when I went to a mixer link previously for AOE:DE I couldn’t find the saved stream.

Go to Mixer on the web from a desktop or laptop PC and you’ll see a selection of Age of Empires channel VoDs. I cannot not find VoDs on mobile web or the Android app.
Still a good month until Gamescom. Hopefully there will be at least some extra screenshots so we can look at it a bit more and drool extra
