Skulls of the Shogun to be Published by Microsoft Studios

Soon everyone will be able to play Skulls of the Shogun!

Skulls of the Shogun

 
Haunted Temple Studios, makers of the promising turn-based game Skulls of the Shogun, have just revealed that the game has been picked up by Microsoft Game Studios.  I’m excited to see the game get a publisher because, if you remember, Skulls got my vote for best in show during this past Penny Arcade Expo East.  If you’re interested in hearing more about the strategy title, check out our extended look from fellow writer Jason Wersits here.  The game is currently set to release later this year. Hopefully they’re able to stick to that target, because I can’t wait to get my hands on it again.
