The Humble Store has the Age of Empires IV Deluxe Edition priced lower than the basic edition. Possibly a regional pricing and/or currency conversion error.

Also as cheap as $69.81 for Humble Choice Classic or Premium subscribers (and possibly worth signing up for a month just for this discount).

Redeems as a key on Steam.

The Digital Deluxe Edition includes everything from Age of Empires IV, plus digital bonus content which includes the official Age of Empires IV soundtrack, Unit Counters Chart, art compilation from digital painter Craig Mullins, and exclusive in-game content including a Coat of Arms, Player Profile portrait, and Monument.

One of the most beloved real-time strategy games returns to glory with Age of Empires IV, putting you at the center of epic historical battles that shaped the world. Featuring both familiar and innovative new ways to expand your empire in vast landscapes with stunning 4K visual fidelity, Age of Empires IV brings an evolved real-time strategy game to a new generation.

Return to History – The past is prologue as you are immersed in a rich historical setting of 8 diverse civilizations across the world from the English to the Chinese to the Delhi Sultanate in your quest for victory. Build cities, manage resources, and lead your troops to battle on land and at sea in 4 distinct campaigns with 35 missions that span across 500 years of history from the Dark Ages up to the Renaissance.

Choose Your Path to Greatness with Historical Figures – Live the adventures of Joan of Arc in her quest to defeat the English, or command mighty Mongol troops as Genghis Khan in his conquest across Asia. The choice is yours – and every decision you make will determine the outcome of history.

Customize Your Game with Mods – Available in Early 2022, play how you want with user generated content tools for custom games.

Challenge the World – Jump online to compete, cooperate or spectate with up to 7 of your friends in PVP and PVE multiplayer modes.

An Age for All Players – Age of Empires IV is an inviting experience for new players with a tutorial system that teaches the essence of real-time strategy and a Campaign Story Mode designed for first time players to help achieve easy setup and success, yet is challenging enough for veteran players with new game mechanics, evolved strategies, and combat techniques.

*Expansion bonus requires Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition game, sold separately. Valid for pre-orders via Steam, Microsoft Store, and participating retailers. Content requires broadband internet to download. See retailer for details.

        IMHO, Game pass is one of the best value subscriptions in gaming that I've ever come across. And I don't even own an Xbox. I have it purely for the PC gaming and the value it give me is insane.

      A lot of people are mentioning the Ultimate Game Pass ($15.95), which you don't need to play this game, You only need the basic Game Pass for $10.95 to play it on PC (make sure you subscribe to the PC Game Pass not console), Forza Horizon 5 is also coming out on Game Pass next month. If this is your first time signing up to Xbox game pass it will only cost $1 for the first month, just remember to disable the auto renewal afterwards if you don't want to get charged $10+.

      • bazingaa on 29/10/2021 - 16:01

    • sTein0 on 29/10/2021 - 13:31

      I'd describe it as a modern approach at age of empires 2 from my experience in the stress test. Aoe3 is my favourite RTS, however I think it's a bit different due to the lack of a home city system, the more old fashioned resource collecting and the slightly different combat. However there are similarities like the aging up as seen in the Asian dynasties expansion. I personally found aoe4 great fun as I didn't enjoy aoe2 too much, probably because it was so hardcore and intense, so in terms of difficulty I'd say aoe4 is between aoe2 and 3.

      • bono on 29/10/2021 - 13:35

        Yeah Aoe3 is so well done for gameplay!

      Just my 2c but after playing an hour on gamepass im not impressed at all. As others have mentioned its closer to AOE2 than AOE3 but its certainly no better than any of the knock-offs over the years. In a world in which Anno exists, AOE4 is extremely clunky and the animations are ugly. No desire to play it again #sad :(

        Good to hear AOE2 was way better than AOE3.

    Not a bad game but can't help but feel like they could add more or get a little more crazier experimenting with other rts games unique mechanics but it's OK this was to be expected the world is just a bunch of expectations some meet them some don't.

    The technical stress test was fun don't get me wrong on that I just really have huge nostalgia for the old games but going back to them is very hard graphically and experience wise now.

    I wonder why no one ever really tried to be the AMD to age of empires (Intel) there were some but where are they now.

      So you're wondering if you can have access to 100+ games when you cancel your $10/month game pass membership?

      Sometimes answers are really really obvious when you think about it. And if you're not getting the vibes here, NO. You lose access to the games until you renew.

      • Mondorock on 30/10/2021 - 23:06

        Shouldn't work like that. Should have access until the date the membership expires.

    Is the digital deluxe version ever really worth it? Couldnt give a rats ass about the sound track, dunno what a unit counter is (displays the amount of specific units you have of each type?), some art and a handful of digital items for at least $20 more than the standard version (based on some keys Ive seen around)

    • FiresOfThePhoenix on 30/10/2021 - 10:53
      +1

      I used this deal a few days ago (was too scared to admit I was preordering or I would have posted the deal). I am happy I got the deluxe edition for this price but I am actually very disappointed with what the deluxe edition offers and how much they charged for it.

      The unit counter is basically a paper scissors rock chart of which units counter which (Eg. Cav weak to spears) and I'm sure will be all over the internet within a week. The art is nice, but not really a selling point for me, and the soundtrack… once again will be everywhere…

      The points that excited me were that you can get a custom coat of arms, a custom 'profile icon' and the monument. I thought the monument would be like the AOE2 monuments where perhaps we got some grand building we could build.

      Nope, it just replaces the bell on the town centre with a wolf statue, one of MANY unlockable replacements.

      It's the same issue with the coat of arms - it gives you one wolf icon and a small pattern you can put on the coat of arms, but that's it. In a sea of customisations, you get one 'icon' for the coat of arms, and one circle that goes behind it and is slightly shaped like mountains. If you are an AOE insider member on the website, you can get (for free) a different icon and circle.

      Very very disappointed with the offerings in the deluxe edition. Happy I got them with this cheap price (and humble choice member so it was even cheaper), but I would have been fuming if I had paid $120 for it.

      TLDR: Not worth it unless cheaper than the base price. The customizations are the equivalent of being offered a slightly different shade of white paint that "no one else can get". The unit counter will likely be on the internet within a weak and that is probably the only thing of partial use.
