Ah, this “Age of Empires IV,” lemme tell ya, it’s got somethin’ called crossplay now. What’s that, ya ask? Well, it’s real simple, really. You can play with folks no matter where they got the game—be it Xbox, PC, or Steam. Ain’t that somethin’? Back in my day, games was all tied up to one thing or another, but now, ya can play with yer friend on the other side, even if he’s usin’ a different machine!
Here’s the deal: if ya got the game on the Microsoft Store, Xbox, or Steam, ya can play together, no fussin’ around. It don’t matter where ya bought it, the game’s got a universal lobby for ya to join in. All ya gotta do is create a multiplayer lobby, and bam! Everyone can see it and hop in. It’s like a big ol’ party and everyone’s invited!
Now, they say this crossplay works even if yer on different devices. Ya could be playin’ on a fancy Xbox Series X, or maybe ya still got an ol’ Xbox One sittin’ around—don’t matter. And if ya prefer to sit at a desk and click-click on yer Windows PC, well, that works too. The game don’t care what ya use; it’s all the same battlefield.
I heard they put this crossplay thing in one of them fancy updates. Yep, they call it a “preview update.” Sounds real fancy, don’t it? With this update, Xbox folks and PC folks can have themselves a right ol’ battle, without worryin’ ‘bout who’s got what. It’s a new way of gamin’, let me tell ya!
It’s not all battles and wars, mind ya. They got other stuff in the game too, like them new seasons. Every now and then, they come up with a new season, and that means new tournaments, new challenges, and some shiny rewards for ya to collect. If ya like a good competition, ya might wanna keep yer eyes peeled for them seasons—they bring fresh fun, like a good ol’ harvest season in the village.
Oh, and ya know what’s real good ‘bout this whole crossplay thing? It means ya don’t need to buy the game twice! Nope, if ya already got it on one platform, ya can play with friends no matter what they got. Back in the day, folks mighta had to get two copies if they wanted to play with everyone. Not anymore!
Now, I reckon some folks might be wonderin’ how this crossplay works. Well, from what I hear, it’s as easy as pie. You just set up a multiplayer lobby, and it’ll pop up for everybody, like a pie coolin’ on the windowsill. No need for any extra steps or fancy tricks. And that’s good, ‘cause I don’t fancy fussin’ with all that tech stuff myself.
- Buy it on Xbox? No problem, ya can still play with PC folks.
- Got it on Steam? Hop in and join the fun, no barriers here.
- Playin’ on an old Xbox One? Ya still in the game!
So, if ya ask me, this crossplay thing’s a real nice touch. It don’t matter if yer the kinda person who likes sittin’ back with a controller or the type who wants a keyboard under yer fingers. Everybody gets to join in. It’s like havin’ a town festival—don’t matter where ya come from, as long as ya bring yer appetite for a good time.
In the end, it’s all ‘bout havin’ fun with friends and strangers alike. And this crossplay in “Age of Empires IV” makes it a whole lot easier. So go on now, get out there, and start buildin’ them castles and trainin’ yer armies, ‘cause the whole village is waitin’ for ya!
