Microsoft's Aces Game Studio was the developer in charge of Microsoft's Flight Simulator for over twenty years. Now in a shocking news update, Microsoft has announced that along with a 5,000 employee lay off, The Aces Game Studio will be shutting down for good. Microsoft has commented that they haven't deserted the Flight Sim Series.
Since the fall of 2007, Microsoft has been shutting down quite a few of their game studios. FASA Studios, Ensemble Studios and Carbonated Games. Bungie, the dev team responsible for the Halo series, has also left Microsoft to become an independant. Microsoft still maintain an ownership stake in Bungie though.
First EA, now Microsoft? What in the world is going on?
