'''Age of Empires Online''', however, turned out to be very much in production. The announcement [[Broken Base|broke the base]] almost immediately, though its free-to-play status [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|may heal wounds]]. The game, made by Gas Powered Games, is intended to enable players "to create a living, growing online world, shared with friends and friendly rivals around the globe, [while] players can develop their own persistent online civilization, which grows even when the player is offline and watch as it progresses from a village to an empire. They can embark on quests along the way, alone or with friends, and to "immerse themselves in epic tales, quirky characters, adventure, history and strategy." The game also includes Live Achievements.
