Hello Kings and Queens,
The update to 1.17 will take place on Wednesday, January 8, 2014. Recreate the Rock 'n Roll vibe in your city as Forge of Empires grooves into the Modern Era. Wartime upheaval brings new skills and strategies to the battlefield, while a new refined goods system brings old goods from earlier ages back into play.
Are you ready to take on powerful new enemies and expand your empire?
There will be a short period of downtime during the update, we apologize for this little inconvenience.
Thank you for playing Forge of Empires.
Sincerely, Your Forge of Empires Team
