Microsoft is excited about Age of Empires' "future potential"

by Gus Lanzetta September 11th 2008 6:34 PM CDT0 Comments

Yesterday's announcement about Ensemble Studios' closing left fans of their games very weary of the fate of said games. So after stating that Halo Wars was still right on track for its release date, Microsoft reasured fans of the Age of Empires series and one of its representatives, Kevin Unangst declared that "As a company, we're very excited about the future potential for Age of Empires, and as a PC gamer I'm looking forward to what that future holds."

I don't know how many of you out there believed Microsoft would just throw away such an iconic and succesful RTS franchise when they can just have its development switched to their new RTS studio, which is formed by "key members" of Ensemble.
