PC is the gold standard for strategy games, since they’re formatted for desktop screens. We’ve rounded up the best of the best, based primarily on sales and ratings on platforms like Steam. Here are our top picks for RTS games you can find on PC.

Some RTS games like Europa Universalis start off with a lot to manage from the start, which can be extremely overwhelming for some players. Northgard is a great option if you want to start slow and gradually build up your control area. This small Norwegian Viking village grows the more you pay attention to it and the more you defend it with strategic battles.

Age of Empires IV is one of the highest rated RTS titles on Steam, and for good reason. Namely, it combines civilization building with kingdom management, meaning you get both detailed and broad gameplay options. There are also multiplayer and single-player modes for gameplay. As a bonus, living vicariously through historical figures like Genghis Khan is pretty interesting. And Age of Empires IV isn’t just great for its mechanics, it also has a gorgeous art style.
