In an interview with PC Gamer with Robot Entertainment President Patrick Hudson, he explained that the developer had always planned to switch over to Gas Powered Games, which had already been working on content and content packs for the title.Īfter a long beta period, Age of Empires Online officially launched on August 10, 2011, with its first two civilizations (Greek and Egyptian). Instead, Gas Powered Games, the creators of the Dungeon Siege and Supreme Commander games, would take over.

In February 2011, it was announced that Robot Entertainment was no longer going to be developing Age of Empires Online. There were also crafting elements in the game, and players could fight in both AI and PvP online battles. There was some massively multiplayer gameplay aspect, as gamers could customize their online capital city.

The title would retain the RTS gameplay of the franchise, but the decision was made to switch over to an art style that many would describe as 'cartoony,' perhaps as a way to appeal to a broader audience. The team was reportedly working on a new Microsoft Games Studios title with the code name 'Project S.' During a Gamescom reveal in August 2010, the game emerged as Age of Empires Online. Rumors of a new game in the series began hitting the internet in 2010 when Kotaku reported that a number of ex- Age of Empires developers had formed a new studio called Robot Entertainment.
