Featuring both familiar and innovative new ways to expand your empire in vast landscapes with stunning 4K visual fidelity, Age Of Empires IV brings an evolved real-time strategy game to a new generation.

Live the adventures of Joan of Arc in her quest to defeat the English, or command mighty Mongol troops as Genghis Khan in his conquest across Asia. The choice is yours – and every decision you make will determine the outcome of history.
