About the Game

Command a fantasy kingdom entirely of your own making in Age of Wonders 4! Venture into brand-new magical worlds through Age of Wonders' celebrated fusion of 4X strategy and turn-based tactical warfare. Lead a faction that evolves and transforms with every move you make as your empire expands.

Triumph Studios' celebrated and award-winning strategy franchise has stepped into a bold new era, pushing the boundaries of empire construction, role-playing depth, and large-scale warfare further than ever before. An innovative storytelling event system paired with extensively customizable empires delivers an experience with virtually limitless replayability, where every session contributes a fresh chapter to your continuously unfolding saga.

The mighty Wizard Kings have made their triumphant return to the realms, asserting dominion as divine rulers over ordinary mortals. Harness and master the Tomes of Magic to transform your civilization, and brace yourself for an epic confrontation that will shape the destiny of ages yet to come.

  • Shape your followers by blending physical forms, cultural traits, and mystical abilities. Construct anything from a tribe of cannibal halflings to ethereal moon elves steeped in ancient magic, or bring your most beloved fantasy archetypes to life

  • Pursue powerful magical tomes to enchant your forces and transform your people! Watch your civilization physically shift as they ascend into radiant angelic beings or descend into agents of chaos to confront their foes

  • Pursue glory through ruthless conquest, strategic diplomacy, or supreme mastery of the arcane arts, and etch your legacy permanently into the very foundation of the realm!

  • Each decision you make unlocks fresh possibilities and strategic advantages; rich, multi-layered gameplay invites you to experiment with new approaches and discover new powers with every passing turn

  • Turn-based tactical battles breathe life into your armies, putting their strength on full display within environments shaped directly by your choices. From minor skirmishes against wandering creatures to massive sieges featuring dozens of units per side, enhanced by a newly introduced morale system and additional features, no two battles ever feel the same

  • Vast diversity across empires, unit rosters, and world environments ensures the game never grows stale. Age of Wonders offers more modding freedom and open-ended gameplay than at any previous point in the franchise's history

  • Discover a completely new realm with every playthrough — or forge one entirely from scratch! Take on fresh combinations of terrain, locations, and conditions, ranging from frozen tundras governed by ice queens to crumbling ancient ruins where mighty dragons hold dominion

  • A newly designed event system introduces unprecedented storytelling depth for the 4X genre. Watch your choices ripple across the world around you, influencing everything from flourishing cities and roaming war bands to reality-altering magical phenomena

  • Steer your empire toward its greatest heights — yet the tale doesn't conclude with victory or defeat! Elevate your rulers to an in-game pantheon and unlock additional ways to personalize your experience. Meet your own past creations as rival powers or potential allies in future campaigns, and continue writing the next chapter of your very own legend!

I want to like this game, but too many core elements don't work. RPG hero elements, but the combat is complete ass. Interesting civilization management, but the AI is balanced via lazy-af cheat multipliers. Multiplayer,

There is just going to be too much DLC creep soon, and buying in is going to be harder and harder even with editions that comes with the DLC that is already years old. I want to recommend this game because I love it and

This is a mediocre game. It was "OK". After fully exploring it, I'm left feeling that if I never played it, I wouldn't be missing anything. Too much DLC, and even on sale isn't worth the price. The whole game loop is

Great TBS game. The only downside I'd caution people of, is that the game loads all its content during startup. With all the DLCs this means it can take a minute or two to load sometimes. Other than that the game is

Goated game, weather you want to play, a hero, a dark lord or the british, this game has it all! If you don't like roleplaying though this isn't for you. The Mechanics do get a bit stale but the flavor and world you can
