How to unlock the Baby Boomer achievement in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

You can unlock this in the tutorial.
When you reach the stage of building your town, you'll build a few houses and be asked to set your villagers to focus on food and wood. You'll slowly start gathering food. When you've got at least 250 (By the time I reached the step of sending my scout cavalry to find a gold mine, I had around 400 food), return to your town centre and hit cn_Y five times to queue 5 villagers.

Make sure you do this before you reach the tutorial asking you to advance to the feudal age.

I just got the achievement on windows after creating 5 villagers in the dark age on a random skirmish, no need to save up to 250 food

You still need 250 Food. Load William Wallace 4 and you start with 450 Food.

You can start a new game and get the achievement if you’ve already advanced to the feudal stage?

You could just do a wonder race, and set your resources to infinite and have this within seconds. That's how I did it.

Load up a skirmish game, and make the game type a wonder race. The reason we want a wonder race is because in the game settings we can set the resources to "infinite". Make sure your starting age is set to the dark age as well

Then just queue up 5 villagers. Easy 5G.

This will come naturally as there are several campaign missions where you start in the Dark Age. As with several of the achievements in this title update, a good level is the William Wallace Learning campaign mission 4: Research and Technology. Once it starts, simply queue five more villagers at the town center once built the achievement will unlock.
