Presumably set around the mid-to-late 21st Century, the Future Era deals with problems such as overpopulation in Africa and climate change.

The Arctic Future is the fifteenth age in Forge of Empires. It is preceded by the Future Era and followed by the Oceanic Future. The Arctic Future is presumably set at the start of the 22nd Century, a time period full of rapid global socioeconomic change and enormous challenges. Climate Change and overpopulation are issues central to this age. Self-evident in the progression of this age is the assumed shift of global attention to new lands: the Arctic. The goods buildings of this age signify heavy focus on renewable, innovative sources of energy. Most strikingly, the Arctic Future Era is the first age that does not reference a single global power, instead pointing towards a more united global community in the face of challenges. For the first age since the Modern Era, the United States's global influence is waning, and the 22nd Century seems to hand power to global organizations such as the United Nations. The central question of the Arctic Future era is: Will humans survive the 22nd century?
