The House of Sonic is now very much the House of Strategy. Sega, which already owns Total War studio Creative Assembly and Company of Heroes studio Relic has acquired Amplitude, the French studio behind the phenomenal Civ-rival Endless Legend and other terrific strategy games. Details here.

Harmonix’s Amplitude revival finally has a release date: January 5. Backers at the $40 or higher tier will gain access a little earlier, however, on December 23.

Remember how Harmonix delayed the Amplitude revival from March to summer? It’s been delayed again! If you’re an “early access” backer, Amplitude be available at the end of the year, but everyone else will have to wait until January 2016.

Everyone's gonna have to wait a few more months for Harmonix to bring back Amplitude, as the studio announced today its Kickstarter-funded revival is moving from March to "summer."
