So upto now we can see that age of empires has 12 players but quite a lot I keep hearing that the game is only going to support 8 players instead of 12 and the only time I can use 12 players is with AI in single player skirmish, now AOMR did have on their site that we are able to play with upto 7 other players but they have removed this a while back which now makes me think that 12 players will be accessible in multiplayer.
so after that explanation I just want to know whether I will be able to play 12 player free for all or 6v6 team games with other players or I’m going to be limited to the 4v4, only asking this as an extra 4 players in a game is massive and would be unbelievably more enjoyable and I really do hope this is the case.
Age of Empires only ever allowed 8 players.
Only Age of Mythology allows 12 players and they promised support for 12 players in Age of Mythology Retold.
They did not enable 12 players in the beta yet but you could already see that the game has support of it.
For example if you queue for a match you can choose between 2 and 12 players but 9-12 were just greyed out.

Yeah I seen the 12 players in the multiplayer when hosting, hope that’s allowable and not just to play with 11 other AI, but this atleast givers me some hope on the subject, thank you and prostagma buddy
They explicitly wrote that the beta was limited to 8 human players which implies the release version will not have that limitation else why write it that only the beta has that limit.
I was honestly 99% sure I’d sent hat myself but the amount of doubt of it people have been posting across reddit had made me pander the decision, so knowing you’ve seen it aswell confirms it, appreciate it skadidesu
