Posted by: 10/12/2011

After making a ton of awesome Xbox LIVE and retail games for Microsoft like Splosion Man and The Gunstringer, some may say that the writing has been on the wall but today we got confirmation.

Twisted Pixel released a statement announcing that Microsoft Game Studios is acquiring the developer.

“Twisted Pixel has an incredible track record of innovative, critically acclaimed, and most importantly,
fun, games,” said Phil Spencer, corporate vice president, Microsoft Studios. “Microsoft Studios is home
to cutting-edge entertainment experiences, and the incredible creativity of the Twisted Pixel team will
help drive further innovation around Kinect and Xbox LIVE.”

We can only hope that Twisted Pixel’s corky nature and FMV is being preserved.
