"Age of Empires 4 has strong foundations to really grow into something, but it comes at a time when Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition is adding long-desired co-op campaigns and an ever-expanding library of historical battles." - Robert Zak VG247 - 4/5

But it turns out that updating a 20-year old classic is actually a pretty great idea." - Austen Goslin PC Gamer - 77/100 The new game from Relic Studios, taking over from previous franchise developer Ensemble, is more like a modernized remake of Age of Empires 2 than a sequel to the series' third game.

"If it’s possible to play it safe with a real-time strategy game in 2021, thenAge of Empires 4 is playing it safe. That means it also does little to smooth over the manic economic play that’s gone somewhat out of vogue in the past 20 years." - Ian Boudreau Polygon - No Score

"The enduring popularity of the Age of Empires series proves there’s a ready audience for Age of Empires IV, and this new entry doesn’t add anything disruptive to the mix. If you're a fan of the Age of Empires series, this is an easy recommendation." - Cale Hunt PC Games N - 8/10 The campaign is absorbing, the multiplayer is competitive, and the visuals and audio are a near-perfect fit.

"Age of Empires 4 hasn't reinvented the RTS genre, but it has perfected many aspects. The expansive campaigns and offbeat factions like the Mongols and the Rus are major highlights, even when it loses some of its sharpness to a small unit cap, frustrating pathfinding, and relatively unimpressive graphics for a 2021 game." - Leana Hafer Windows Central - 5/5 "Age of Empires 4 plays it safe a bit too often, but really excels when it wanders outside of its very traditional comfort zone.
