Earlier today, the official Xbox account tweeted that the developers are working hard to finish the latest title in the history-themed series Age of Empires IV developed by Relic Studios showing an official campaign trailer. On the Age of Empires official website, there is also a special fan preview of the game. The preview discussed some of the processes of making the new title as well as music and audio for the game and the civilizations. It was originally announced in 2017 and has been in production since. The release date for the game is expected later this year and will be available on PC.
In Age of Empires 4, players will visit the Chinese, Delhi Sultanate, English, and Mongol empires where they will have to be resourceful and strategize in order to build their empires. The Xbox official tweet featured an official trailer for the game introducing the Norman Campaign taking place in 1066 during a war over who is the rightful king for the throne of England. On the official website, developers share a little bit about the new campaign writing,
At the start of the Norman Campaign — just one of four campaigns available in Age of Empires IV — William of Normandy sets forth on the hard-fought road to conquer England and become it’s new king. What follows is an epic story of succession, family conflict, anarchy, and rebellion — all with the players in the front seat.
Since the release of the first Age of Empires game in 1997, it has become a popular game due to its real-time strategy and gameplay. While there is not any other news about the other campaigns, from the preview, fans can expect some amazing gameplay features that even have a lot of fan influence.
