Hayes Madsen of CGMagazine summed up his 10/10 review by saying 'Age of Empires IV is a bold and ambitious evolution of the series, and quite likely one of the best RTS games ever made.' Game Informer liked the history videos between missions, but criticized how the game didn't seem to innovate on the formula of its predecessor, feeling that Age of Empires IV 'lacks any ambition to even gently jostle the standards set by Age of Empires II decades earlier'.
