Age of Empires IV Is Coming Soon And The System Requirements Are L.O.W

Release Date
October 28, 2021

The game will be released on October the 28th, and you don’t need a super gaming computer to play it. The system requirements are actually pretty low.

Age of Empires 4 launches later this week and our review find this latest entry in the beloved RTS series one worthy of its kingly stature. Prior to the game’s imminent release, Microsoft has updated its system requirements which should aid players with aging gaming PCs getting started on building their own empires.

Changing the course of history won’t need the best graphics card or best gaming CPU, as the game accommodates rigs of all ages. In fact, you might not need an upgrade at all thanks to the new minimum system requirements.

Following the Age of Empires 4 stress test earlier this year, the developer noted a large portion of its player base was still playing previous Age of Empires titles on older gaming laptops and rigs. This meant the game “needed to support a diverse set of PC configuration”, according to Michael Mann, executive producer at World’s Edge, in an interview with Xbox.
