Age of Empires IV: Definitive Edition was unveiled on August 21, 2017, at Gamescom but that’s not it, the latest iteration of the RTS (real-time strategy) game will come bundled with an updated version of Age of Empires: Rise of Rome which was first released in 1998.

  • Age of Empires IV takes players on a journey through the ages as they command influential leaders, build expansive kingdoms, and fight some of the most critical battles of the Middle Ages. 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.
  • The minimum requirements for the game as well as the recommended specifications are listed below: Minimum Requirements: Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system OS: Windows 10 64bit Proc.

Once the patch has finished running the new (old) launcher window will open up. From here you can load up the settings menu, and choose from a much broader range of resolutions – on our MBP we run 1680 x 1050. Now you can launch Age of Empires in HD using the HD Launcher menu item. You can still play old school using the original shortcuts too!

The Age of Empires franchise is receiving an update 12 years after its last edition and two decades after the first Age of Empires game was released by Microsoft.

The Age of Empires IV will be released on October 19, 2017.
