Xbox’s Gamescom plans center on a game that’s not even on consoles
The upcoming Age of Empires remaster will be at the front and center of Microsoft’s show during Gamescom 2017, with its own first-look and hands-on preview events. If you’re up at an insanely early time (to correspond to the German show’s time zone), you can tune in to the livestream at 3 a.m. PT on Monday, August 21st.
2017 marks the 20th anniversary of the Age of Empires series, so Microsoft’s Definitive Edition packs in a decent amount of goodies. The game comes with the full game as well as the Rise of Rome expansion, giving players 16 civilizations to explore, a re-orchestrated soundtrack to listen to, some overhauled gameplay mechanics, Xbox Live multiplayer support, enhanced graphics, and more.
The Age of Empires: Definitive Edition is a Windows 10 exclusive. It’s set to release later this year. In the meantime, it’s possible to start playing right away by joining the Age of Empires Insider Program and launching the beta.

I've played more AoE growing up than I have on any other game. I'll gladly buy anything to do with this game. It's great.

With the amount that Xbox shows off Pc games I'm beginning to think that they are going to let you install windows 10 on Xbox.

I've heard of the game's name but never seen gameplay or never seen any friend's playing it tbh. Bad choice IMO should've chose a more popular game that people will enjoy more
