The beloved strategy franchise, *Age of Empires Mobile*, is expanding with the introduction of the exciting new Mercenaries System. This feature provides players with enhanced control and increased power over their armies, adding a thrilling new layer to the gameplay.
Unlock the Mercenary Camp at Level 26 to dive into the world of mercenaries. Here, players can contract and recruit formidable mercenary units, as well as unlock and upgrade exclusive technologies tailored to these elite warriors.
Each mercenary group comes with its own unique set of special skills, designed to enhance your army's effectiveness on the battlefield:
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 have the opportunity to secure their first mercenaries at no cost by participating in a new event, which is currently live alongside the system launch.
This latest update to *Age of Empires Mobile* introduces fascinating "What if" scenarios, allowing players to experiment with strategic pairings of legendary heroes and different mercenary classes. Imagine Joan of Arc leading Roman Centurions, or Hannibal commanding Japanese Samurai. These unique combinations open up new tactical possibilities, enabling players to conquer their enemies and build the most powerful empire imaginable.
