Age Of Wonders 4 invites players to build their own fantasy realms through deep Ruler and Empire customization; reactive worlds; and a mix of strategy, role-playing, and turn-based combat.

Age Of Wonders 4 is the first sequel in nine years for the Age of Wonders fantasy strategy game series, bringing new levels of customization and replayability to the games’ iconic empire-building, role-playing, and best-in-class tactical combat.

Rule a fantasy realm of your own design in Age of Wonders 4! Explore new magical realms in Age of Wonders’ signature blend of 4X strategy and turn-based tactical combat. Control a faction that grows and changes as you expand your empire with each turn.

Triumph Studios’ award-winning strategy series has emerged into a new age, evolving the game’s iconic empire building, role-playing, and warfare to the next level. A new storytelling event system and hugely customizable empires provide an endlessly replayable experience, where each game adds a new chapter to your ever-growing saga.

Powerful Wizard Kings have returned to the realms to reign as gods among mortals, and players will rise to challenge their rule using Tomes of Magic to unleash arcane destruction and evolve their armies, gaining new abilities and forms. For the first time in the series, players can create their own custom factions, and leave their mark on countless worlds through each choice they make.

Paradox Interactive and Triumph released a free content update for Age of Wonders 4, the latest installment of the award-winning Age of Wonders fantasy strategy game series, in celebration of the game’s first launch anniversary.

The free update, available now for all platforms, features:
  • An adoptable Dire Penguin plushie!
  • Standard and exotic Raptor mounts.
  • A Dragon Scale interface skin.

Development for additional Age of Wonders 4 free updates and premium content is in the works, with the next major expansion for the game, Eldritch Realms, launches in June 2024!

Key Features:

  • Create the Empire of Your Wildest Fantasies: Craft your followers by combining bodily forms, societal traits and arcane powers. Build anything from a clan of cannibal halflings to mystic moon elves, or recreate your favorite fantasy tropes. Seek powerful tomes of magic to enchant your armies and see your people physically change as they morph into angelic beings or scions of chaos to face their enemies.
  • Strategy Meets Role-Playing Like Never Before: Every choice opens up new possibilities and tactical advantages; deep, multilayered strategy allows you to try new tactics or explore new powers at every turn. Tactical turn-based battles bring your armies to life, from skirmishes with roaming monsters to vast sieges with many units on each side!
  • Write Your Own Legend: A new event system provides unexpected levels of storytelling for 4X games. See your decisions shape the world around you as you seek glory through brutal domination, cunning alliances, or ultimate arcane knowledge. Your own creations may even appear as potential rivals or allies in subsequent games, as you experience the next chapter in your own story!
  • Make Your Mark on a Vast, Reactive World: Explore a new realm in each session - or create your own! Challenge new variations and combinations of locations and features, from frozen wastelands ruled by ice queens to desolated ruins where dragons roam. With a tremendous variety of empires, units, and environments to keep the game endlessly replayable, Age of Wonders is more open-ended - and mod-friendly - than ever before in the series’ history.

Age Of Wonders 4 is available for PS5, Xbox Series |XS and PC (Steam).
