What content will be available in this beta
And what can we do in this closed beta of Age of Empires IV? To begin with, we will have the tutorial (Mission Zero) to learn the basic aspects of the game, both when rebuilding the empire and what is related to the economy and of course the first bars in the battle. All the essentials.
As for the game mode as such there will only be one, the multiplayer . But here you can play both against other people (with a maximum of eight) or against the game’s AI. And along maps with different biomes and sizes.
And what about civilizations? Only four, which is half of those that will be at the launch of the game on October 28. So, in this beta we will have the Chinese, English, Mongols and the Sultanate of Dehli.
In addition, other games can be watched without having to play.
