[2022] Age of Empires IV — Map Monsters: By Stars and Sea

We’re giving you more time to stargaze during our second Seasonal Event for Age of Empires IV Season Two, By Stars and Sea, now ending on August 30th! This means you have one more week to Make it Big, Get to Safety, or claim each reward All by Yourself.

Look up to the skies as we navigate our second Seasonal Event, By Stars and Sea, as part of Age of Empires IV’s Season Two.

Head To the North! by playing through the Formigny mission on Hard difficulty, Get to Safety by garrisoning 10 Villagers in your Town Center, and more as you complete challenges and unlock seasonal rewards.

Navigating the endless seas goes hand in hand with experiencing unique sights and natural wonders. Be careful not to get lost – or you might end up stranded!

• Unlock new Portraits including the stunning Aurora Borealis!
