About the Game

Command a fantasy kingdom entirely of your own making in Age of Wonders 4! Venture into uncharted magical worlds through Age of Wonders' distinctive combination of 4X strategy and turn-based tactical warfare. Lead a faction that evolves and transforms alongside your growing empire with every passing turn.

Triumph Studios' celebrated, award-winning strategy franchise has stepped boldly into a new era, elevating its legendary empire building, role-playing mechanics, and large-scale warfare to unprecedented heights. A freshly introduced narrative event system paired with deeply customizable empires delivers an infinitely replayable journey, where every session writes another chapter in your ever-expanding personal saga.

Formidable Wizard Kings have made their triumphant return to the realms, ascending to rule as divine figures among ordinary mortals. Seize and harness the Tomes of Magic to transform your civilization, and steel yourself for an epoch-defining battle that will shape the course of history for ages to come.

  • Shape your followers by blending physical forms, cultural traits, and mystical abilities together. Construct anything from a tribe of cannibalistic halflings to enigmatic moon elves, or bring your favorite classic fantasy archetypes to life

  • Pursue mighty tomes of magic to enchant your forces and reshape your people! Watch your civilization visibly transform as they evolve into celestial beings or harbingers of chaos ready to face any adversary.

  • Pursue glory through merciless conquest, shrewd diplomatic alliances, or supreme mastery of arcane knowledge, and inscribe your legacy permanently into the very foundation of the realm!

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

  • Tactical turn-based combat breathes life into your armies, putting their strength on full display across battlefields shaped entirely by your choices. From minor clashes against wandering monsters to massive sieges featuring dozens of units per side, the inclusion of a morale system and numerous additional features ensures every engagement presents a unique challenge

  • Extraordinary diversity across empires, units, and environments makes the game endlessly replayable. Age of Wonders offers greater moddability and open-ended freedom than at any other point in the series' storied history

  • Discover a brand new realm with every playthrough — or forge one entirely from scratch! Take on diverse combinations of locations and environments, ranging from frost-covered wastelands governed by ice queens to desolate ancient ruins haunted by roaming dragons

  • A groundbreaking event system introduces storytelling depth previously unseen in 4X games. Watch your choices ripple outward to reshape the surrounding world, from flourishing cities and marching armies to reality-altering magical phenomena

  • Steer your empire toward legendary greatness — yet the story doesn't conclude with victory or defeat! Elevate your rulers into an in-game pantheon to unlock additional layers of customization. Encounter your own past creations as potential rivals or allies in future campaigns, and continue the next thrilling chapter of your personal 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
