Amongst the new titles set to release later in 2006 are the titanic Age of Empires: Collectors Edition, Age of Mythology and Rise of Nations. These titles have already launched and proved to be huge commercial hits in the full price sales charts. There addition will continue to strengthen the brand's commitment to providing the best games at a value price. These latest signings continue to reinforce the long-standing and successful relationship between Microsoft and Xplosiv.

Further to the inclusion of these titles into the Xplosiv value range the Microsoft partnership was further strengthened by the addition of the expansion packs Age of Mythology: Titans, Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna and Rise of Nations: Thrones & Patriots which are set to enter the range following their full product predecessors.

"The Age of Mythology, Age of Empire and Rise of Nations products are amongst the most successful RTS games available to the consumer. And, now Xplosiv is able to offer these titles at a value price, to a broader audience," said James Spice, Xplosiv General Manager. He added, "The addition of the Legends of Aranna expansion allows us to continue the successful Dungeon Siege saga and both the Age of Mythology: Titans and the Rise of Nations: Thrones and Patriots expansion packs give further value to the Xplosiv range. In all these count as some of the biggest titles to enter the Xplosiv range to date and some of the strongest brands available to PC gamers to buy."
