The big day is fast approaching. Age of Empires 4's release date is set for October 28 - so just a few days away from now - but we can already get a good idea of what the imminent RTS game will bring when it lands. The reviews have just begun pouring in, so let's take a look at what the critics have made of the strategy game series' next major instalment ahead of its arrival.
So far, it looks like Age of Empires 4 has been warmly received by reviewers, with the game currently sitting at a very healthy aggregate score of 84 on Metacritic and 86 on Opencritic. While there's naturally a little variation from site to site, most scores place it near the top of the scale, with plenty of reviewers putting it somewhere around the eight or nine-out-of-ten mark, though some have scored it higher.
In PCGamesN's Age of Empires 4 review, senior news writer Ian Boudreau gives it an eight-out-of-ten, noting that "the legendary real-time strategy series has returned with a surprisingly traditionalist new entry". Ian concludes that, "polishing a classic formula without revolutionising it, this is a robust package that includes something for just about every kind of RTS player, from beginners to grizzled veterans".
