Critic reviews
- XboxEra9.0With the minor issues aside, it still amazes how me well the developers were able to bring such a complicated strategy game to the console. The grouping options and ‘d-pad’ selections make maneuvering your troops a snap in the heat of combat. The villager management mechanics make the game more entertaining but also more realistic.
- Way Too Many Games6.5Age of Empires IV feels like a massive step back when compared to the immense levels of fun, customization and depth offered by Age II, III, or Mythology. Playing it on a controller just adds an unnecessary layer of complexity towards the gameplay, even though I still commend the developers for their impressive efforts. I doubt anyone else would have been able to pull off such task. With that being said, I can’t recommend playing this particular version, or Age of Empires IV as a whole for that matter. Just stick to its much better predecessors.

The Legacy Continues
I used to play age of empires 2 and 3 when I was a child and after playing aoe 4 now I must say that the developers have nailed it. Gameplay remains kind of similar with some changes here and there. But you get great graphics with various different factions. If you love history then definitely try out the single player campaign of this game. It has real life cinematics explaining how the war was being fought between kings at earlier times.

If you like aoe3 more than aoe2 you love aoe4 :)
