Microsoft has recently announced a brand new deal with videogame publisher Amiga Games that will bring between fifty and five hundred titles on Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8.

All games will be fully compatible with Windows 8.1, the company said, and Microsoft will promote them via Windows.com and the spotlight section of the Windows Store.

"Microsoft has put a spotlight on mobile gaming and we are very pleased they chose Amiga Games to be a part of their mobile gaming experience," said Eric Mitchell, CEO of Writers Group Film Corp. "Windows 8 and Windows Phone are great platforms for AGI to showcase our best titles."

Amiga Games confirmed that the first 50 Windows 8 titles would reach the Store by the end of the year, while the rest of the games are projected to be released sometime next year.
