Xbox announced a total of one studio acquisition during their E3 Conference, but it was a big one.

Bringing their development studios now up to a total of 15, Xbox has announced they’ve acquired Double Fine, the Tim Schaefer led studio which has produced hits like Broken Age, Costume Quest and Psychonauts.

The very unique studio that is Double Fine makes a really interesting acquisition for Xbox. They’re definitely a studio that fills an area that Xbox didn’t have covered before with core whimsical game design.

Xbox continues to build its ranks towards what will be an interesting next-generation with Project Scarlet, which they also talked about today.
