Hello everyone, you can download Age of Empires IV for Windows 11 and experience playing a popular game from the award winning Age of Empires franchise.
Today we will highlight some reasons why we think you should give this game a try on your Windows PC. I have been a huge fan of such games(RTS) since the mid 2010’s when they were extremely popular, anyone remember, Rise of Nations, which was probably my favorite game for years, I even learned how to mod the game to include my own special units, yes, I was completely hooked on that game, I wish they would make a proper sequel right now. Then we had StarCraft II, Command & Conquer: Generals that everyone tried to play, Warcraft III, of course, Company of Heroes, this game was just too good then we had Empire Earth, Empire Earth 2 was okay, and the classic Age of Mythology which to me was a bit overrated, even in its prime but that is a story for another day. So as you can see, I had to get this game, I was one of the thousands on waiting list and the game was worth the wait, I still play it a couple of times a week for a couple of hours and I still have fun, especially since you can also mod the game by checking out their thriving modding community, you do need a Microsoft or Steam account to view the mods so be ready to sign in if you are interested. Like I always say, I can’t play a PC game without having to check out some mods eventually, it extends the game.
Anyway, let us know in the comments if you decide to try this game and what you think about it. Don’t be shy. 😉
The game is included for free if you have a PC Gamepass
