How many players does Age of Empires Mobile have in 2024? Reasons to play it
Age of Empires Mobile is one of the big surprises of the year. If we had been told at the beginning of the year that one of the most popular games of 2024 would be a strategy game from a franchise known for its depth, we would have laughed. But here we are. Age of Empires Mobile has proven that the formula can be brought to mobile phones. And the numbers prove it.

Age of Empires Mobile is one of the big surprises of the year. If we had been told at the beginning of the year that one of the most popular games of 2024 would be a strategy game from a franchise known for its depth, we would have laughed. But here we are. Age of Empires Mobile has proven that the formula can be brought to mobile phones. And the numbers show it.
With more than two million downloads in the last month and over five million since its launch, it is one of the strongest releases of 2024. Proving that Age of Empires still has a lot to say when it comes to strategy. And there are good reasons. Because in addition to being a free-to-play game with in-game purchases, it is a game that has shown it knows how to elegantly transfer the Age of Empires experience to mobile phones.
If you expect an exact replica of the PC games, as is evident, you will be disappointed. Some of its depth and certain micromanagement elements have been left aside, but this is in exchange for delving into other specific aspects of the experience. Building our empire, constructing our buildings, and gathering materials remain crucial, but now more than ever, war gains importance. In battles against other players, we can loot their resources, which is also a valuable way to advance our goals.
What is so special about Age of Empires Mobile?
Because Age of Empires Mobile has a feature that its older siblings lack: it is persistent. This means that we don’t have to start from scratch each time; instead, we build our city, manage it, and every time we go to battle, it will be to continue expanding our city. This is important because the online map will always be there, and we can form alliances or start wars against our neighbors in quick and intense skirmishes for domination.
If you like games like Domination or Rise of Kingdoms, but need a game with a bit more depth in management, Age of Empires Mobile is the perfect game for you. A strategy game with enough depth so that it doesn’t run out in a couple of weeks, but not so complex that it becomes unmanageable on your mobile phone. The best of both worlds, always available in your pocket.
Age of Empires Mobile is a free strategy game from developer Level Infinite. Not to be confused with Age of Empires: Castle Siege, it is the latest attempt from Microsoft to break into the ever-competitive mobile gaming industry. It directly takes inspiration from the popular Age of Empires series on PCs.
