Multiplayer: Coop and Hot Seat in Age of Wanders 4
It is possible to play in coop mode. The game is based on various players doing their turns at the same time or one after the other, so, it makes it very easy to incorporate multiplayer and cooperative playthrough. You can create various teams and have fun in many ways – with or against other people.
What is more, it is possible to play in hot seat mode. It means that a few players can use one device. You can take turns one after the other. To use local multiplayer, when you create a new map, just change ruler to human in Advance options.
At the moment, the biggest maps in the game can be created for 9 players. So, it is the max number of people in the multiplayer mode. However, there is a mod made by Triumph Studios, which allows for 12 players. Of course, thanks to it, the maps can be bigger also (we write about map size here).
