Age of Empires 4 open beta stress test just finished. The community is worried for many reasons. Only 8 civs? Graphic looks bad? Engine bugs? 60 Euros / $ too expensive? Definitive Edition release - when? Balance?


Age of Empires 4: everything we know: What is the Age of Empires 4 release date?

Age of Empires 4 launches on October 28, 2021.

During the E3 trailer, Microsoft and Relic finally gave us a release date, but you can also get to play a bit earlier. Relic's already hosted some closed betas, and from Friday, September 17, everyone can play through Steam or the Xbox app, even if you're not part of the Insider programme. This will run until September 20. Hopefully we'll get some more opportunities before launch, too.




▶ Age of Empires 4 will have 8 civilizations, but there's room to expand

Eight civs is a decent start, but Relic plans to keep expanding them. It's not clear if they'll be appearing in free updates or premium expansions, though.

"[Eight civilizations] is where we're starting," Relic told us. "The detail we're putting into the civilizations and the focus on making them more unique—you can imagine there's a reason StarCraft had three factions the entire time, because doing asymmetrical balance gets massively complicated. For us, starting with eight is a big endeavor, and then we're going to keep expanding."


▶ Age of Empires 4 will contain 4 historical campaigns

Previously, Age of Empires has focused on historical figures, like Joan of Arc, or given us more of a story-driven campaign, as in AoE3. This time, however, we'll be getting four campaigns that give us a longer view of a civilization's history. In the Norman campaign, for instance, you start as William the Conqueror, but eventually you'll witness the conflict between his kids, and then their kids, and so on.

"You get the whole story of the Norman conquest, from the time this ambitious duke made his way across the channel and said 'this is mine,' all the way to the point where you're signing the Magna Carta and laying the foundations of what England is today," said narrative lead Philippe Boulle. "We bridge the gap between missions with these wonderful historical films. We worked with documentarians to go to all kinds of locations like Hastings and Dover, where these events happened. And that's just one of the four campaigns we're shipping with."


▶ Age of Empires 4's campaign will show 'humanized histories'

In an interview with GamesRadar, creative director Adam Isgreen hinted how Relic is evolving the RTS campaign in Age of Empires 4. "We're doing something very different with the campaign… I can't talk about it, but it's really crazy-cool," he said. "I can say that we will be bringing history in a fun and exciting way to people – the way we coined it for Age of Empires 4 is 'humanised histories'."


▶ Age of Empires 4 will 'modernize' the series without overcomplicating

Talking to GamesRadar, creative director Adam Isgreen shared Age of Empires 4's goal to not overcomplicate the new game in an attempt to modernize it. "Generally speaking, the longer a genre exists, the games that are responsible for taking it forward tend to make it more complicated. With Age of Empires 4, it was important for us to be like, 'okay, how do we back away from that?'. We do not want to take on all of the complexity that we see in RTS games today," he said. "This is a fresh start for us. We want to modernize the series and that means we are going to do things differently."




▶ Age of Empires 4 is being made by Relic, creator of Company of Heroes


Relic added a few words on its own website about Age of Empires 4 back when it was announced. "[We] couldn’t be more proud to be a part of the legacy," the blog post reads. "We can’t wait to tap into our strengths as a studio to fuse historical context with deep strategic gameplay, and to bring this franchise back to the forefront of gaming and into the hands of its beloved community."
