Double Fine re-secures rights to Iron Brigade, releases new Steam update that fixes the game's matchmaking service

Double Fine has re-secured the rights to its World War I tower defense shooter Iron Brigade, which debuted on Xbox back in 2011, and hit the PC a year later. The studio's not only gained the rights to self-publish their game, they've also scooped up the IP itself - I wouldn't be surprised if we see a sequel at some point. To celebrate the news, Double Fine has released an update to the Steam version of the game, which adds various bug fixes and improvements, and replaces the original matchmaking with Steamworks support.

He has not, however, given up on major AAA titles.
