Safety overview
Status: Safe
This is a legitimate commercial game for macOS. Its disk usage can grow over time because of saved games, downloadable content, and updates, which is normal for a strategy title with bundled expansions and multiplayer support. Network access is expected for online play and game updates. Keep the game if you still play it or want to preserve local saves and installed content.
Recommendation: Keep Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition if you play it or plan to return to it. If you no longer use it, removing it is usually fine and will mainly affect the game itself, including local saves, settings, and installed content unless you back them up first.
