Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition received a huge update recently. The developers invite players to join the Dress to Impress event via Update 66692.
In the Dress to Impress event, players can unlock graphical mods if they’re able to meet specific objectives on separate days. On the fourth day, for example, players can unlock a graphical mod where the Crusader Knight replaces the Paladin after training 100 unique units with shields.
Here is a rundown of the exclusive rewards for this event:
- Build 2 Town Centers playing as the Tatars.
- Unlocks a graphical mod where sheep wear a golden fleece.
- Train 3 Militia or Men-at-Arms in a single Skirmish or Multiplayer match playing as the Aztecs.
- Unlocks a graphical mod where Man-at-arms are using a Xolotl sword.
- Train 30 units wearing capes.
- Unlocks a profile icon of a powerful Knight wearing medieval tournament gear with a decorated helmet and armor.
- Train 100 Unique Units with Shields.
- Unlocks a graphical mod where the Crusader Knight replaces the Paladin.
- Train 10 Knights in one Skirmish or Multiplayer match before 25 minutes game time.
- Unlocks a Black Knight graphical mod for Knights.
The Dress to Impress event for Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition will last from August 29 to September 12.
Update 66692 also implements some UI changes. For one, objective timers now update properly when changing the in-game language. Besides that, players can no longer interact with multiplayer lobby dropdowns and buttons when the map selection screen is open. The latter is likely to prevent the issue of accidentally changing certain parameters when selecting maps.
Here are the other UI changes in Update 66692:
- Armor Value/Icon no longer disappears in tooltips when a building/unit has an armor value of -1.
- Obsolete Map Style dropdown no longer appears in single-player lobby and for multiplayer hosts.
- The AI difficulty is now displayed while in Quickplay queue.
- Tech tree preview for Gurjaras now shows the Camel line properly.
- Diplomacy label for ally players during treaty is no longer different from the standard one.
- Games can now be found properly with the Refresh button, when a word has three or fewer letters.
- Fixed an issue where the campaign menu background was black when entering the campaign menu for the first time after launching the game.
- Mods no longer appear duplicated in the Mod Manager.
- Chat no longer appears truncated when above a certain character amount.
Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition Update 66692 is available on PC.
