    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Microsoft has added a tutorial to the console port of Age of Empires IV, which helps players get used to the controller layout.

    Real-time strategy (RTS) games aren’t an obvious fit for consoles and controller play, but Microsoft released Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition earlier this year, and we found that it plays great.

    Verge reporter Ash Parrish found that the thoughtful controller interface “worked as seamlessly as I remember with a mouse and keyboard.”

    Age of Empires IV also has a villager priority system that uses predefined presets and custom settings so that players can assign villagers to focus on resource gathering with a single button press.

    Microsoft has also added a variety of accessibility options, including adjustable difficulty levels, in-game narration, and a high contrast mode.

    You’ll be able to play Age of Empires IV with up to seven friends in either player-vs-player (PvP) or player-vs-enemy (PvE) multiplayer modes on Xbox Series X / S or with up to three friends on Xbox One.
