Age of Empires 5 speculation

[KnowingLamb8370]

Hi devs if you are working on Age of Empires 5 share this new with public so we can say which way you should go.

[CleanupCastle14]

I think the announcement of AoE5 will take place in 2027 at an event dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the game series.

[Amichi]

Why would they do that? Age of Empires 4 is new and very good, the holy grail of RTs.

Wait until Warhammer 40k Dawn of War IV and Total War

Also, is suspicious that Blizzard posted on StarCraft’s News Page the Blizzcon 2026 announcement.
Maybe a StarCraft Revival?

[Amichi]

It will be more of a fun game than a game of strategy and action-packed action

[TheLiberator236]

Crearly you did not try DoW man

Base building would be back in addition to army improvements and abilities

[KnowingLamb8370]

Dawn of War is coming out and AoE 5 will probably take couple years to be produced.I hope they let us know the timeline of the next game.

Also this true too AoE 4 is best strategy game in the market.

Same (20 characters)

I just hope it’s not a game made out of fear, and that it once again tries to appeal to Age of Empires II players and professionals.

Nothing will make them abandon Age of Empires II; that much is clear at this point.

I really enjoy the enthusiasm fans bring to the conversation, sharing wishes and desires.

But I wholeheartedly believe that letting fans influence creative decisions would be the single worst choice for development. In the past its also led to some of the bigger arguments, as fans tend to disagree with each other far more than they do with the developers.

Conceptually I would enjoy something like this:

[CONCEPT THREAD] Age of Empires V: Bronze Era + Iron Transition(c. 2500–1200 BCE)

Hello, I’d like to share a concept idea for a future main Age of Empires title. The series have already covered classical antiquity and middle ages extensively with several titles, but the Bronze Age—from around 2500 BC with early cities and citadels to the collapse around 1200-1100 BC—offers something completely new. The Four Ages Age Name Key Unlocks Historically I Age of First Cities Villages, basic bronze tools, early trade posts Early urban growth (~2500-2000 BC) II Age…

so it’s in everyone’s interest here to not have another AoEII frankestein copycat like AoEIV

Yeah thats true but at the same time I think is better for them to keep investing in AoE IV instead of making a brand new game this early

[KnowingLamb8370]

Actually when they announce they were working on AoE 4 i tell them what kind of game it should be and they made the exact same game.It could be a luck too but most of the new things i said was in the game when it came out.Game turned out perfect.
