CaptureAge
CaptureAge is a fully remote, Xbox-partnered game development studio, built around a team with broad experience across games, AAA co-development, in-house software, and independent projects.
The studio in practice
CaptureAge works across co-development, original projects, and internal tools, shaped by a small, senior team used to operating inside live production environments. We collaborate with publishers and other studios, take ownership of complex systems and content, and apply the same care and long-term thinking to our own software and projects, including shipped AAA DLCs for Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, co-development work on Age of Mythology: Retold, and the development of CA:DE.
We design and build complete game experiences, from mechanics and systems to narrative and content, across both partner work and original studio projects.
Full-stack development & custom tooling
We deliver game features, systems, and content end-to-end, from early prototypes to shipped releases, working independently or as part of larger production teams on PC and console (Xbox, PlayStation).
Game design & systems
We design and implement game systems, mechanics, and narratives that support long-term play, competitive depth, and clear player expression, across genres and production scales.
Esports & competitive context
Our team has worked directly within esports tournaments and competitive communities, shaping how we approach game and software development.
