AoE4 Replay Launcher

Watch any AoE4 replay directly from aoe4world.com. One-click download and launch into Age of Empires IV.

HOW IT WORKS • Browse any player's match history on aoe4world.com • Games with available replays show a "Watch Replay ▶" button • Open game detail pages to see enhanced replay timeline charts • Click "Watch Replay" to instantly download and launch the replay in AoE4 FEATURES • One-click replay launching - downloads the replay and opens AoE4 directly into it • Replay timeline charts - army composition, army value lead, destroyed value, and resource insights • Replay-accurate colors - charts can match the players' in-game colors • Interactive chart ranges and tooltips for reviewing key moments • Works on game list pages and individual game detail pages • Save replays - star games on detail pages to keep them locally for offline viewing • Patch-aware - warns when a replay is from a previous patch, hides replays that are too old SETUP After installing the extension, download and run the native launcher from the GitHub releases page when prompted by "Watch Replay". The launcher is only needed for downloading replay files and launching AoE4 through Steam. It's fully open source and auditable - just a PowerShell script and a batch file.
