Odds are you or someone you're close to have fond memories playing Age of Empires.Ī phenomenon that recently saw the formation of a new Xbox Games Studios team called World's Edge, which would oversee the franchise’s continued success with assistance from a range of talented studios. In the case of the latter, the recent Definitive Edition releases of the first two Age of Empires titles - originally developed by the now defunct Ensemble Studios - not only saw a renewed interest in the Age series from a wider audience, but bolstered its already formidable popularity in a community of fans that span the globe. From StarCraft to Warcraft to Command & Conquer to Age of Empires, we’re talking about titles from decades past in a genre that has all but disappeared. When it comes to the real-time strategy genre, full-blown remasters are often a cause for celebration.
Re-releases or Definitive Editions haven’t exactly been rare of late, but as we’ve gone from non-HD to full-HD to basking in the midday sun of the 4K-era, there are plenty of reasons to bring back a classic.
