Microsoft Studios is still active, however, Ensemble Studios who developed Age of Empires was closed in 2009. Then you have Skybox Labs who built &quot;HD&quot; versions of some of their games.<p>Some guys from Ensemble has since formed Robot Entertainment, released e.g. AoE Online, and is supposedly (?) using Microsoft as publisher once again but I don&#x27;t think they&#x27;re part of Microsoft Studios anymore. AoE Online was shut down in 2014 though. :&#x2F;
