The speculation by Tom Warren also sparked the community. They poured in their thoughts about what they expect from the broadcast stream. The community expressed how much they would love a console port of the game, but meanwhile, some fans pointed out that the controls of RTS games aren’t very suitable for the controllers of consoles.
I really hope so, I’ve played and been a fan of most of the AoE games, I remember playing Age of Empires 2 on the PS2! I hope they’re porting AoE 4 to PS5 & Series X.

No reason not to. Especially in this day and age you can just M&KB natively on consoles

Please yes there's no reason y it isn't
If civ6 can run on switch then AoE can run on console
& before ppl make the "power" argument
It actually runs better on switch then xbox lol
