Does the AOE 4 Ultimate Bundle include ALL DLC release? What about future DLC too?

Hi I was just wondering if you might know the answer, perhaps you bought the Ultimate Bundle. It would seem to me, the Ultimate Bundle purchase/activation AFTER DLC is added to a bundle you’ll get it, but BEFORE you would not.

1. So if I buy bundle today, does it include everything?
2. What about future “added packages”?

• Age of Empires IV: Ultimate Bundle on Steam = says it includes everything
• https://steamdb.info/bundle/45804/#history says “Added package to this bundle”
• The Xbox store is outdated and does not even have the package — Buy Age of Empires IV: Knights of Cross and Rose | Xbox
• same with Buy Now - Age of Empires - World's Edge Studio

“Ultimate” or “Complete” bundles tend to include all DLC released up to the moment you buy it. Future DLC is generally not included unless explicitly stated so. For AOEIV it includes the base game, the two released DLC and the digital deluxe upgrade.

Some live service games (Destiny, etc) do include future DLC (usually called seasons or something similar) in their complete packages but again this is quite obviously stated on the game’s page when you buy it.

Thanks for clarity, so it would seem to be, anything that says “Items included in this bundle” is included at time of activation. I didn’t purchase ultimate bundle yet, but if I do I’ll report back.
