35 civilizations, from Babylon to Singapore

Seven eras

One unbroken history

Every game begins with a single settlement by a river. Where it ends — a world-spanning empire, a ruin, or a ship among the stars — is up to you.

An early riverside settlement rising from mud brick and timber
Era I Ancient Found your capital, tame the river and raise the first wonders of the world — Stonehenge, the Pyramids, the Hanging Gardens.
A classical harbour city with aqueducts, temples and marching legions
Era II Classical Aqueducts, harbours and legions. Grow your cities into districts and carry your borders across the sea.
A fortified medieval city crowned by a castle and a cathedral
Era III Medieval Castles and cathedrals. Walls that hold — until the siege engines arrive.
A captain with a spyglass leads a fleet of sailing ships toward an unknown coast
Era IV Early Modern Caravels and galleons chart unknown coasts. Shipwrecks, ruins and lost cities wait for whoever finds them first.
An industrial city of smokestacks, iron bridges and steam trains at dusk
Era V Industrial Coal, iron and steam. Factories feed ironclads and artillery, and the world goes to war.
A modern metropolis glittering at night across a river
Era VI Contemporary Megacities, carriers and jets. Oil and uranium become the resources every empire fights for.
A green future city of towers, maglev trains and floating gardens
Era VII Future Exo troopers, fusion cruisers and orbital lances. History is not finished with you yet.

Built differently

Every choice has a price

World of Empires III strips the empire builder down to the decisions that matter, then makes every one of them cost something.

  • Economy

    One currency rules them all

    Gold is the only coin of the realm. Every piece spent on research is one not spent on soldiers. Set your taxes, split your budget, take loans and trade on a world market where prices follow supply.

  • Research

    Choose directions, not technologies

    Fund war, society, land or craft. When a field breaks through, pick one of the discoveries it offers. War, trade and unrest bend the odds, so no two games discover the world in the same order.

  • War

    Battles you can read

    Armies march in stacks bounded by command capacity. Clashes unfold in volleys, melee and breakthroughs, the odds are shown before you strike, and veterans rise to become generals.

70 leaders

Who sits on your throne?

Two leaders for every civilization, each with a title, a trait and an agenda of their own. Rivals remember it, and play to it.

  • Hatshepsut or Ramesses II
  • Napoleon or Jeanne
  • Victoria or Alfred
  • Shaka or Nandi
