Gamescom 2022’s Opening Night Live was the home of several surprises in the form of game announcements and updates for current games. One of the segments of the stream included a section in which Age of Empires IV showcased its Anniversary update in which players will have several new features coming for free on October 25.
The update will include two new civilizations that will be available for free: The Ottomans and the Malians. Players will be able to lead the mighty Malians of West Africa as one of the wealthiest trading nations of all time as you focus on strong economic prowess in mining and investing in gold.
