Xbox Controller Guide - Age of Empires IV

by Team Respawn · ~6 min read

Age of Empires IV on Xbox is fully playable on controller, but the default layout takes practice. This video walks through the bindings that matter most: moving the camera, selecting and tasking villagers, queuing units, and using control groups without a mouse.

If you are coming from PC RTS games or other console strategy titles, treat this as a controller onboarding session before you jump into ranked or co-op. The embed above is the main guide; expanded written notes may follow in a future update.
