Age Of Empires IV Developer Will Invite You To Learn History While Playing Games

Battle formations in Age of Empire IV (Microsoft)

JAKARTA - Since the beginning of the game Age of Empire launched in the 90s, developers have always used a historical background. Such as civilizations, weapons, to the type of formations to survive or attack.

Until the third series, developers simply repeated the same formula. The differences are only in terms of graphics, gameplay, as well as weaponry and civilization that can be played.

However, Microsoft and Relic Entertainment want to offer something different from the latest age of empires IV (AoE IV) series. Later, players will be invited to learn history while playing the game. Something certainly worth waiting for.

Quoting The Verge, the latest series of Age of Empires will be equipped with documentary narration. The narration of the historical event will be tucked into Campaign Mode, a game mode where players will be invited to complete tasks and stories that have been prepared.

It's not just the story side that gets the focus of development. The company has also added music, artistic works, to the use of language based on a certain period of time. All of that is taken from historical events that have been taken into account.

With The Same Background

When it is first played, AoE IV will present a typical Medieval background. As usual, players will be provided with a patch of rice fields, residents, and livestock.

The player's task is simple, developing rural areas and managing resources. Not only that, but players are also asked to defend the village when there are attacks from enemies or other civilizations located nearby.

Through Age of Empire IV, you can feel nostalgic for this old game. Also, you can also get challenges thanks to the addition of different weapons, types of soldiers, and civilizations. Victory lies in your hands as a strategy manager, whether it's a strategy to defend, attack, and manage resources to grow your territory.

While engaging in battles set in certain historical periods, players can also play Campaign Mode. Like the previous series, this mode contains stories with such a long duration. You can upgrade your civilization to the age of inter-robot battles!

However, unlike the previous series, each story in Campaign Mode has been supplemented by the context of the event. From the battles you have to face, to the missions you have to complete.

Not only that, players will also be treated to a documentary note containing information from the place where the historical event took place. According to the developer, the new model is an attempt by the company to give players an explanation of each task that needs to be completed.

Instead of just completing for civilization to evolve, players can better understand the context behind each event. Quite challenging and interesting, isn't it?

According to the plan, this real-time strategy game will be available for Windows PCs. You can download it through Steam, Microsot Store, and Xbox Game Pass starting in the fall of this year.
