Description


Revelations sets in motion the return of the entombed Es’Teq dynasty, whose Heritor descendants aim to use ancient technology and reincarnate billions of followers across the galaxy, establishing divine rule. The Heritor wield strong Entropy weapons that are effective against machines and can awaken ancient Es'Teq minds. Claim ancient secrets or succumb to their power in a new campaign with tactical combat and in-depth empire building.

Anomalous Sites Mechanic:

Explore 30+ mysterious sites filled with traps and powerful enemies to reap unique rewards and uncover great secrets. Encounter unique choices based on each faction or Secret Technology.

Additional Campaign Missions:

Experience the awakening of the Es’teq dynasty and the rise of their Heritor descendants with 10+ hours of new content across two campaigns. 

New Secret Tech: Heritor:

Use ancient Heritor technology to drain the essence of enemies, fueling the opportunity to use powerful abilities, create strong Entropy weapons, and summon new units. 

Tomb World Scenario:

Challenge yourself to complete this deadly new Scenario, where Heritor enemies create an onslaught of destruction. This scenario also includes a new multiplayer questline to allow more players to join in on the action.

‘The Forgotten’ NPC Faction:

Broken, insane, or otherwise unfit for Heritor’s utopian society, The Forgotten were never meant to be resurrected. 

Threats to Your Empire:

Reapers are robotic assassins created long ago to destroy those who were friendly to the Heritor cause, but now hunt all who walk the planet. Equally deadly are the Megasow and Piglets, bio-engineered wildlife gone rabid after the fall of the Star Union, which will devour anything in sight. 

Locations, Pick-Ups, & Mechanics:


Visit an Essence Gash or Es’Teq Well locations to supply new combat effects or abilities to your units. The Holopad pickup provides diplomatic rewards and additional influence over allies and enemies. Take over Imperial Defenses like the new Soul Beacon, Cluster Mine Launcher, or Firestorm Missile Silo to aid in combat.

Free Content:


All players will gain the ability to take over the new Imperial Defenses, unlocking Operations that boost the combat effect of your colonies. In addition, the Orbital Relays mechanic boosts your empire’s infrastructure to allow for nearly instant unit transportation between sectors - but beware of sabotage interference by enemies!

[b][u]Overall[/u][/b]: 7/10 Its more of the same, with some tweaks and improvements here and there. The anomalies were a good inclusion, but could have been handled more elegantly. If you don't enjoy the campaign, the price will likely be too high for you. [b]Presentation[/b]: 6/10 + New models and maps are well polished and visually distinct. + New music tracks are atmospheric and more original than the old ones. +

Age of Wonders: Planetfall - Revelations DLC (short review) It's a really great addition impo which lifts this game to greater hights. While this 1st. expansion dlc introduces new tech, units and heroes, it also brings previously unseen wildlife, quests, regions, and of course its own story to the base game. The only mixed feeling i personally have is that i only wished The Devs could have added this prior to when

Price isn't right for a two scenario campaign and an uninteresting mechanic/NPC race. Might have been worth it had they INCORPORATED all the new content into the existing campaign while tacking on the two new "scenarios" somewhere but for the price, I'm expecting more from a "DLC campaign addition" than "two short scenarios". Also they still didn't fix the fundamental problems of the game, how about spend some time
