Exent Technologies has announced that Microsoft has selected the company to digitally distribute its PC games including the Age of Empires, Age of Mythology, Dungeon Siege, Mechwarrior, Rise of Nations and Zoo Tycoon franchises. Games from Microsoft Game Studios have now joined a catalog that consists of Atari on Demand, Comcast Games on Demand, and Yahoo! Games. Analysts believe that digital distribution is the next big thing in the gaming industry, with numerous gaming and non-gaming companies creating their own services.
"Microsoft is committed to helping expand the PC game industry. By making our titles available through Games-on-Demand services, we can broaden our reach to new audiences and monetize additional release windows." said Ed Ventura, Director of Franchise Development, Xbox Worldwide Content and Marketing at Microsoft. "Exent’s distribution channels help us to extend the lifecycle of our game catalog and to build a firm foundation for the future."
