Microsoft form new RTS Studio

Microsoft has formed a new Gaming Studio dedicated to RTS called Decisive Games and it will be working on a "beloved strategy game" franchise.

If there is one thing that Microsoft used to be good at it was making great strategy games, the best example of which was the Age of Empires series. It has been an age since Microsoft has made a RTS game for Windows, though they did make the well recieved Halo Wars Game for the Xbox 360.

(Perhaps this "beloved strategy game" could be a new Age of Empires game)(This is a screenshot form AoE3)

"The Decisive Games team is focused on world class strategy game development, and is building a studio that will bring the next installment in a beloved strategy game franchise to the next generation of gamers around the world. This is a highly-collaborative, agile team, with a play-centric approach to game development."

Microsoft has also posted a job application for a Senior Software Engineer which is looking for someone who help “create the next-generation of awesome games for Windows and Xbox!,” and will be “building a studio that will bring the next instalment in a beloved strategy game franchise to the next generation of gamers around the world.”

Personally I am looking forward to seeing what decisive games can come up with, being a huge fan of RTS games.
