Age of Empires IV Releases First Major update of 2022
2 years ago | Gaming News Age of Empires IV's first major update of 2022 comes with bug fixes, balance tweaks, and new features.
Finally, Age of Empires 4 is confirmed to launch in autumn 2021 and will have a closed beta.
Since its announcement, information on AOE 4 has slowly been to us, but Microsoft gave us a few little treats in the Fan Preview above, which we can share here.
The game itself will contain eight civilizations at launch, each with unique traits and strengths. We now know four of these civilizations.

Chinese: Strong defenders with a strong economy; they have a lot of gunpowder and can build all landmarks at any Age.
Mongols: With access to the Stable from the beginning, the Mongols are a fast and agile army capable of reproducing units and completing research quickly.
English: They have the Longbowman unit, capable of killing their enemies at an increased range.
Delhi Sultanate: Excelling at research and defense, they have unique access to several upgrades through the Ages and can research technologies quickly.
Age of Empires 3 launched in 2005, so it’s been a long wait for this next in the series. Fortunately, you can sign up for a chance for access to the closed beta.
