New Gameplay Today — Age of Empires IV

Age of Empires IV arrives this Thursday. However, you can also join Game Informer’s crew for an exclusive look at the massive elephants, and to have your say about the real-time strategic franchise. That’s right, it’s another action-packed episode of New Gameplay today featuring Dan Tack, Alex Stadnik, and John Carson. You are invited to enjoy the program.

Age of Empires IV launches with eight distinct civilizations and many ways to enjoy them. You can choose to expand your economy aggressively as the Mongols, or build 40 farms to sell food on the markets for cash. We make the Delhi Sultanate out of elephants because they can crush almost everything.

Age of Empires IV now available for PC via Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass. It could be possible to port it over to consoles. Traditionally, RTS has been difficult to move over to console due to the control scheme, but it’s not unheard of.
