New surprise DLC on 25th anniversary?

November 14th

AoE2:DE came out Nov 14, 2019, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the original, even though its timing wasn’t exact month to AoK’s release date.

So, Nov 14th seems reasonable to me. It’d be a 5 year anniversary of AoE2:DE, while also helping to celebrate 25th anniversary of AoK.


And if that wasn’t enough proof, keep in mind November is the 11th month:

  • ‘11’ added together = 2. This is AoE “2”
  • AoE’s famous taunt = 11

And the 14th day:

  • 1+4 = 5. This is the "5"th year anniversary

Further, D is the 4th letter of the alphabet. L the 12th. And C the 3rd, so:

  • DLC added together (4+12+3) = 19
  • The year 2024 added together (2+0+2+4) = 8
  • 19 - 8 = 11 (i.e., the 11th month, November).

Hardly a coincidence, especially considering the ‘24’ part of 2024 added together = 6 (2+4). And 19 + 6 = 25 (the 25th anniversary)

Infallible logic and just imagine the marketing potential :wink:

Therefore, November 14th will certainly be the day
