Holy crap that's an amazing turn of events! And they have the IP. I'm shocked tbh. Microsoft had such a beloved IP in their hands and they let it go. But I'm happier this way!

Yeah, that was a real stroke of genius by Microsoft.

I would not be surprised if the negative backlash about their closure forced Microsoft's hand, because imagine if it came out that this group wanted to give those devs their jobs back with the same company identity, and maybe even work more on the game they built, and MS just was like, "nah". Absolute PR bloodbath.
