AoW 4
Release Date: May 2, 2023
The fourth main installment of the fantasy turn-based strategy series by Triumph Studios, published by Paradox Interactive.
Age of Wonders 4 is the next installment of a turn-based strategy series, developed by the Dutch Triumph Studios since 1999. Like its predecessors - and unlike the futuristic Age of Wonders: Planetfall - the game is set in a fantasy universe. It was released by Paradox Interactive.
The fourth installment features a different approach to story elements. In addition to the traditional campaign - taking place in the land of Evermore known from the previous installments and revolving around the Wizard Kings, making their return to rule over mortals as gods - Age of Wonders 4 allows players to create their own stories as well.
This is made possible thanks to the very powerful kingdom creator. It allows us to determine things such as the climate of our future lands, their inhabitants, culture, social traits and magical powers. We can also create the kingdom's leader in another, equally-as-complex creator.
Creating your own worlds and races is entirely optional. There are plenty of pre-made realms and characters, letting the player start the game proper very quickly. Age of Wonders 4 features a system of story events as well. These add uniqueness to the game and create a sense of a constantly evolving story. This impression is made all the greater by the option of using the lands you've created and led to glory in future playthrough, as allies or enemies.
In terms of gameplay, the fourth installment doesn't differ much from the previous ones. Your main goal is to build a powerful empire that will stand the test of time. This can be done by exploring new lands and expanding your territory, extracting resourcing and exterminating its native wildlife. The gameplay, therefore, contains all the elements of a 4X strategy.
Particularly important is the latter aspect - extermination. During combat we'll face wild beasts and the armies of other nations. Battles are turn-based, with victory requiring good tactics, taking advantage of the terrain and using our units' special abilities. Our formations can be upgraded - permanently or temporarily - via rare magical books. The troops' effectiveness in combat is determined by factors such as their morale, ensuring no clash will be the same as the other.
It's worth adding the player can directly affect where to face their foes. After all, your kingdom's geographic and political structure depends on you. You can annex neutral cities, exploit fertile lands to the point of unusability or change the climate with spellcasting, letting snow cover the realm.
Age of Wonders 4 can be played both in singleplayer and in online PvP.

Game Ratings for Age of Wonders 4 Video Game.
Windows Central: 3.5 / 5 by Jez Corden
Age of Wonders 4 is the first entry in the mainline series I've ever played, and I had little to no idea what to expect. Age of Wonders 4's stunning high-fantasy tapestry immediately captured my imagination, and it wasn't long before I was creating my own personal undead army and marching across the land, leaving chaos and decay in my wake. Despite the game's complexity and depth, the biggest hurdle for me was its performance on Xbox Series X. However, it's by no means unplayable, and I suspect I'll find myself playing it for many dozens more hours before I get tired. This is a stunning 4X game that Civilization fans will most likely adore.
COGconnected: 88 / 100 by Mark Steighner
While Age of Wonders 4 doesn’t shy away from depth and complexity, it rarely overwhelms the player. Starting with the faction creator, Age of Wonders 4 is dedicated to letting the player shape their experience as much as possible. No matter how you prefer to play, you’re in for hours of engaging strategy and tactics with an incredible array of mix-and-match fantasy elements.
Shacknews: 9 / 10 by Josh Broadwell
Age of Wonders 4 might be overwhelming at first, but it's brimming with potential and gives you the tools to tell unique stories with your chosen hero. The nearly decade-long gap between releases gave Triumph the chance to polish Age of Wonders 3's weak points and come up with substantial improvements to combat and presentation. The result is one of the best grand strategy games in ages.
