Age of Empires for Android and IOS announced

Age of Empires for Android and IOS has been announced as the Licensing agreement between Japanese developer Klab and Microsoft has finally concluded on a positive note.  As per the Japanese newspaper Nikkei, Microsoft had reached a deal with Klab to develop Age of Empires for Android and IOS devices.

The news has also been confirmed by a Microsoft representative with gamespot regarding the development of the game for mobile devices.  

The game will be free to play and the release date is expected to be by the end of 2013.

I am not a huge fan of the AOE series but considering that the game has done quite well for its faithful fans in the recent past, this will be something they will be looking out for.

The game should be available for download through the google playstore for Android of Apple store for Apple devices.
