Here’s a sneak peek of some of the goodness we’re queuing up for Winter 2021: Our team has been hard at work preparing this update, and we’re appreciative to the community for lending your voice to the conversation. In Winter 2021, we’ll be introducing hundreds of balance changes (literally!), a variety of helpful bug fixes and a few key features we’ve seen requested by players.
On Monday, November 15 th, we launched Patch 7989 to introduce fixes to Xbox Account linking, an issue with Mongol Town Center behavior, performance impacts when panning the camera and some other tweaks. While this patch was smaller and more pointed, we’re happy to share that we’re putting the finishing touches on a larger patch we’ll look to share soon. With our first patch officially released earlier this week, it’s time to turn our attention to what we’ll be introducing in the future. Read on to get a quick glimpse at some of our plans for Winter 2021 and Spring 2022, as well as some feature requests the team is tracking based on your feedback. We’ll be looking to our players and your feedback as we continue to build a better Age together. We are so grateful to our community for keeping the spirit of Age alive these nearly 25 years and for those of you joining us for the first time with Age of Empires IV.
Age of Empires IV officially released on October 28 th and World’s Edge and Relic Entertainment have loved watching you play! As we shared on the eve of our launch, October 28 th signified the beginning, but we’re far from done.
