“Titlateuitin (Tee-tla-teh-WE-teen)” – To Battle!
Aztecs Overview
Quetzalcoatl
Tezcatlipoca
Huitzilopochtli
Take command under three new Major Gods, each offering a distinct playstyle.
Quetzalcoatl, the Feathered Serpent, rules as a wise priest-king, accelerating his people with the power of wind while strengthening culture and learning.
Tezcatlipoca, the Smoking Mirror, embraces night, chaos, and sorcery, summoning underworld minions and bending reality through illusion.
Huitzilopochtli, the god of sun and war, demands sacrifice and devotion, granting devastating power to those willing to give everything in his name.
Expand your divine influence with nine new Minor Gods, each bringing unique god powers, myth units, and strategic depth inspired by Aztec legend. Command deities such as Itzpapalotl, the obsidian butterfly of death and magic. Call upon Tlaloc, master of rain and destruction. Unleash Xolotl, whose corrupt influence twists enemies into monstrous forms.
Brand New Campaign: Obsidian Mirror
Obsidian Mirror introduces Fear and Illusion gameplay, offering new ways to dominate the battlefield. Lay traps, manipulate enemy behavior, harvest life force, and construct towers from fallen foes. At the heart of Aztec power lies Tonalli, the essence of life released in battle. Every fallen warrior will fuel divine Favor and empower your gods, driving your civilization forward. Even your villagers can offer their life force when greater power is needed.
The all-new 12-mission campaign tells an epic story of divine conflict and survival. When the eternal rivalry between Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca destroys the utopian city of Aztlan, Huitzilopochtli seizes the moment to lead his people south in search of a new empire. Meanwhile, Tezcatlipoca escapes through his Obsidian Mirror, crossing continents to recruit legendary allies and reclaim his dominance. Gods will clash, alliances will fracture, and the fate of the Aztec people will be decided by blood, belief, and power.
Obsidian Mirror is a dramatic evolution of Age of Mythology: Retold. For fans who have waited years to see the Aztecs rise, and for strategy players drawn to bold mythic themes and inventive mechanics, this expansion delivers a fierce new vision of divine warfare.

Darker Red Blood! We saw players’ desire for darker blood, and have changed the shade of the default red blood. You can still swap to the brighter color if you prefer the brighter red by changing the setting.
Skeletons now support a white variant and the option to switch from red to white after a set period.
Impact effects showing Blood VFX now appear closer to the target under attack for melee attacks. Reduced from 110% to 80% of each unit radius.
New modder functions to help spawn blood VFX.
Added new settings to expand how you can customize your experience with the Blood and Bones DLC.
New setting to show Unique Unit Visuals (enabled by default).
New setting to show Darker Blood (enabled by default).
New setting to control the scale of Blood Pools. Defaults to 100% and can be modified between 5% and 200% scale.
New setting to choose Skeleton Color. Defaults to “Dynamic (Bloodied to White)” which starts as bloodied skeletons and then swaps to white after 20 seconds. The alternative options allow you to set skeletons to be “Always Bloodied” or “Always White”.
Brighter Blood (Darker Blood Disabled) with Bloodied Skeletons
Darker Blood Enabled with White Skeletons
Unique Unit Variations
Players who own both the Obsidian Mirror DLC and the Blood and Bones Pack DLC can play with bloodied versions of two buildings. You can toggle these in the DLC tab using the “Show Unique Unit Visuals” setting.
