Age of Empires Mobile Unveils New Mercenaries Troop System

Author : Penelope Mar 26,2025

The legendary strategy game, *Age of Empires Mobile*, is expanding its horizons with the introduction of the exciting new Mercenaries System. This innovative feature allows players to gain more control and significantly boost the power of their armies. Starting at Level 26, players can unlock the Mercenary Camp, which enables them to contract and recruit formidable mercenary units. They can then unlock and enhance technologies unique to these elite warriors, adding depth and versatility to their strategic options.

Each mercenary group comes equipped with its own set of specialized skills, designed to enhance your army's effectiveness:

Byzantine Cataphract:

  • Increase the damage of all hero skills of the army by [2%]
  • After the troops inflict skill damage, all damage received by our troops is reduced by [3.5%] for [3] seconds

Swiss Pikeman:

  • Increase the probability of triggering the hero’s pursuit/active skills of all troops by [1%]
  • Reduce all damage received by troops by [2%]

Korean Archer:

  • Increase the probability of triggering the hero’s pursuit/active skills of all troops by [1%]
  • Reduce all damage received by troops by [2%]

Players can kickstart their mercenary journey by securing their first Mercenaries for free through a new event that is currently live alongside the system launch.

This new addition to *Age of Empires Mobile* not only enriches the gameplay but also introduces thrilling "What if" scenarios. Imagine the possibilities: What if Joan of Arc led Roman Centurions into battle? Or if Hannibal commanded Japanese Samurai? These unique combinations allow players to explore new strategic and tactical approaches, enhancing their journey to build the most formidable empire.
