Back in November 2018, Microsoft and inXile founder, Brian Fargo, announced that the aqcquisition of the development studio. "We could not be happier to have Microsoft’s support to allow us to keep making the games we love,” Fargo said. “They offer us the most precious thing a developer could have, time and resources. I’m energized like I’ve never been before.”
“Our studio is best known for our deep role-playing games, like Wasteland 2 and Tide of Numenera,” said Fargo. “Games that are centered around choice and consequence where your decisions change the world and narrative. Recently, we released The Bards Tale IV, where we modernized the classic dungeon-crawling experience. And we are just warming up with Wasteland with the upcoming Wasteland 3. At InXile, we love to write for the brutal world that makes the post-apocalyptic themes so fascinating.”
