You can always install and start the game in English/German/French/Polish/Russian no matter which version you have bought.
March 19, 2014 at 11:43 #50690As far as i know the retail edition contains multilanguage, included english is it right?, what I want to know is that considering that I’m from Spain which is the best place i should purchase the game, both regular o deluxe edition if is possible.
March 19, 2014 at 13:17 #50759Hello!
Do you plan to produce mac-version of the game, ant if yes – when will it be available?March 19, 2014 at 13:17 #50760Hello!
Do you plan to produce mac-version of the game, and if yes – when will it be available?March 19, 2014 at 17:12 #50919Hello sorry if you distrubo, but do you know if there is an italian community of this game?
March 19, 2014 at 17:15 #50921Damn, so no boxes in N. America?
Oh well. Already pre-ordered the Steam version. All I really want out of a deluxe edition of a game usually is the soundtrack anyway. And boy, is it looking like an awesome soundtrack.
March 19, 2014 at 17:48 #50949Well, I couldn’t wait anymore and decided to pre-order the retail deluxe edition from amazon.de, with english language and steam it’s enought, thank you =D
March 19, 2014 at 19:34 #51032Thanks for letting us know about the Retail versions.
It’s a bummer to know there is no special edition or limited edition in english version for us in Belgium or the Netherlands. My german is a little rusty…March 19, 2014 at 20:15 #51086@arnout Ok thanks, then i take the collector 🙂 and just to be sure, with the collector there is those 2 scenario right ?
it says : 2 Codes für digitale Zusatzinhalte o Das Szenario „Der Aufstieg der Elfen“, welches den Spieler zurück in den Herzholzwald schickt, den man dereinst in Age of Wonders bereisen konnte. Bis zu 6 Spieler messen sich auf dieser Karte o Das Szenario „Drachenthron“ führt den Spieler an die Küste des Meeres der Flammen, wo ein mörderischer Krieg um ein Drachen-Ei entbrannt ist.
I think it says there is elven resurgence and dragon’s throne but i don’t understand german ^^’
March 19, 2014 at 21:16 #51155@angelicus all editions contain English text and voice for the game itself
March 19, 2014 at 23:00 #51239I think it says there is elven resurgence and dragon’s throne but i don’t understand german ^^’
It does.
March 19, 2014 at 23:27 #51265Ah nice 🙂 thanks guys, can’t wait to receive the collector, now i just wait for it !
March 20, 2014 at 07:28 #51464@lennart
Still the booklet and the covertext is in German.
In the boxes of AoWII and AoWIISM the text are in English. Althou I don’t have the limited edition or special edition.
I’m still thinking which one I will order…March 20, 2014 at 12:44 #51589Hello everyone 🙂 I would like to ask one question about polish special edition. Number 3 – Great Book of Armies. What does it contain? I’m really curious! I would greatly appreciate the answer, thanks in advance!
March 20, 2014 at 13:51 #51615I also can’t find information about that, i guess it contain all information about hero class and special magic for them etc. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Boxed version in Hungary?<br>
Nice! However, I didn’t expect it, so I already pre-orderd the game on steam ;(You can probably cancel it, no?
No. I already bought the game on steam. There is no way to cancel ; (
It’s how steam works.March 21, 2014 at 00:13 #51945Okay I caved in and finally ordered the physical German Collector’s Edition, after already pre-ordered the Steam version. The Steam key will go to my brother, so I am afraid I won’t be offering it in a raffle 🙂
Kind regards,
Low
March 21, 2014 at 15:01 #52320So I have to order it from a website in a language I don’t understand at all? That’s just great.
Guess I won’t be buying the game then.March 21, 2014 at 21:19 #52577Very excited for the game! Shame the LE is not in English, this prevents me from buying that version, but I’ll still get it on Steam regardless.
Although at first glance it seemed to me you would lose a large market by not bringing out AoW in English, but since it’s on Steam I doubt this hardly matters. Maybe it can be added later, if the game turns out to be a success (with help from Mojang???)
There is one thing I find a shame, the lack of attention in the Netherlands itself for a beautiful game like this which may very well be the best created by ‘us’ (And yes, with all due respect, even better then Killzone).I also want to play the game with my brother on 1 PC, so I’m hoping for scenerio option of multiple human wizards on 1 PC is still available?
Can’t wait for the game to arrive!
March 21, 2014 at 21:24 #52586I also want to play the game with my brother on 1 PC, so I’m hoping for scenerio option of multiple human wizards on 1 PC is still available?
Yup, that’s still a possibility, you can have multiple human and AI players in a scenario 🙂
March 21, 2014 at 21:28 #52590Still somewhat dissapointed by the lack of english booklet&special edition though, as most here. Because I’ve been thinking, and while I understand the decision not to partner with anyone to ship the game to the UK or the US, US and UK buyers would have no problem ordering an english edition from the game from Amazon.de (I’ve had experience ordering from the US and UK amazon). so really there is rather significant market to be lost there, judged by these posts alone.
Did notice the game on the Dutch website bol.com (not the LE):
http://www.bol.com/nl/p/age-of-wonders-3/9200000025955766/March 21, 2014 at 21:58 #52627Earlier in this thread Lennart Sas said that they would have to self publish to make an english edition. They did not want to, or could not afford to, do that so therefore no boxed english edition.
March 21, 2014 at 22:37 #52641Argh! Stupid living in the USA where physical copies of PC games don’t sell anymore…
March 22, 2014 at 00:00 #52676Me comprende only English, but froggie is at least slightly understandable due to de William de Bastardo and de Norman robber barons.
So, is there any reason why I should not order the French retail edition rather than the German one – I would prefer to get both bonus senarios.
March 22, 2014 at 05:09 #52746I wouldn’t mind buying the German version for the LE, but I really do want an English guide book to put in pride of place next to my AOW1 guide book… In English >_<

Kind regards,

March 25, 2014 at 13:05 #54944Steam will be fine for me although I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on some of those goodies anyway.
March 28, 2014 at 20:52 #57298Just wondering. When will we be able to download the game from Steam? Some games let you download it the day before (or thereabouts). Just wondering if this was the case for AoW3.
Can’t wait. You guys are amazing
March 29, 2014 at 00:59 #57438I won’t pretend I’m not EXTREMELY disappointed that these physical editions are not being offered in the USA. Sorry, I’m not passing judgment, but it seems like a cop-out when even if, I concede, there are percentage-wise more European PC gamers than American, at a little over 60% for Germany and 50% for the UK vs 40% for the US, the fact that we have over 150 million gamers in total compared to the UK and Germany’s combined less than 100 million suggests that a game like this would sell FAR better over here. The big chains like Gamestop and Best Buy would likely have put at least a few copies on the shelves, and spread out over their tens of thousands of stores that adds up to quite a few. As a fan of the franchise from the first game onward, this is a bitter blow. Just expressing my opinion and voicing the disappointment of one gamer. One of a great many over here in the States.
March 29, 2014 at 05:32 #57529Information about Polish edition is wrong, please fix. You guys missed point 3.
1. Game
2. Guide
3. Great Book of Army <- i do not know what this is exactly, probably bestiary.
4. Poster
5. DLC: Dragon Throne
6. Sountrack <- only one CD not two
7. Stickers -
