When starting the game, only the cinematic is visible and not the icons 
@FE_Yorkie can we please get a pinned post about the main menu bug workaround? I swear this problem is posted atleast couple times a week here or on reddit.
Age of Mythology: Retold Update 18.7603 - Age of Empires - World’s Edge Studio
“Fixed a situation that could cause the main menu UI to disappear on some devices.”
If this has not addressed the issue for you, please let us know.
