This comes at a time when the gaming industry seems to be favoring “everlasting” shooter games like Fortnite. So, the question arises, how does Stardock decide which types of games to produce, and might they venture into other genres in the future?
Jez Corden, from Windows Central, notes that Stardock is focusing on strategy games with Ashes of the Singularity 2 and Elemental: Reforged, while many other companies are concentrating on long-lasting shooter games like Fortnite.
