Microsoft announced the game Age of Empires IV (VIDEO)

At the Gamescom 2017 gaming exhibition in Cologne, Microsoft officially announced the game Age of Empires IV, which will continue the legendary series of strategy games.

According to Ferra , the game will be released for PC, and will be developed by Relic Entertainment, a studio owned by SEGA. The studio has previously worked on a number of well-known games, including Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War and Company of Heroes.

The company did not provide any details about the future game, nor did they name its release date. For now, fans of the series can get their first impression of Age of Empires IV from a short trailer published on YouTube.

Let us remember that the first game in the Age of Empires series was released in 1997, and in total the series has four games (Age of Empires I, Age of Empires II, Age of Empires III and Age of Empires Online) and four add-ons. Previously, Microsoft promised to re-release the first three parts of the game.
