The first official patch for Age of Wonders 3 is live. Version 1.09 of Triumph Studios’ recent release corrects hardware-specific issues, registration problems, optimizes game performance and tweaks AI behavior as well as adding critical balance fixes to the game.

Based on feedback, the developer has also added a few other features, such as an option for quick saving and native high resolution support up to 2560×1440 / 2560×1600. The patch is available as an automatic download via Steam or as a separate file via GOG.com.

Age of Wonders 3 is a strategic role-playing game Joystiq’s Earnest Cavalli called “as glorious a resurrection as the series could have hoped for,” in his glowing review.
