MS teasing a major new game announcement for Windows 10 event?

So today Major Nelson tweeted at and followed this Twitter account

https://twitter.com/pcedf

The accounts name is "Be Ready" and as you can see PC is in the name of the Twitter handle. It has a picture of some kind of medieval knight looking art as its banner image.

Also it has "soon" written as its bio. With the upcoming Windows 10 event it looks like there is a legit chance MS may be revealing a new game here.

UPDATE!!!!!

It was nothing just a hilarious coincidence. Here from the Major himself.

"Slow down folks...here is what happened.

@thevowel (who I work w/) tweeted this:
https://twitter.com/thevowel/status/555807482484781056

Then @pcedfeldt tweeted this as a response:

https://twitter.com/pcedfeldt/status/555809964845830144

I tweeted ":)" since it would be funny if @thevowel could not remember my name (see above tweet)

but Tweetdeck (or my own stupidity) did not reply to that tweet thread.

AND thus this thread was spun up.

I removed that tweet and replied with proper context here https://twitter.com/majornelson/stat...28331694657537

So that's it. No hidden meaning here, there or anywhere.

Quick fact check: I never followed that account."

I'm listening but not expecting something "big", at least from my perspective.
If it's "big" from MS it must also be on Xbox One.

Blinded by the luminous glory that is David Bowie's physical manifestation.
Personal Computer "Earth Defense Force."

Makes sense for that tag. Though I don't think EDF is a huge IP to hype for a PC port?

PC? Previously looking for developers to work on a "beloved" strategy game from Microsoft? Medieval Knight?

Age of god damn mother fucking Empires! Yeaaaahhhhh!...I hope.

This is the same game that's referenced in the "return of a beloved strategy game" tweet right? If so, then the picture would suggest that it's Age of Empires.
 
google image search for the profile pic comes up fan art for Dark Souls
edit: well it did before the changed the profile pic

If this is a new Age of Empires I will lose my shit.

And there is evidence pointing to it might be happening. Like you said they wre looking for developers to work on a beloved strategy game.

GUYS IT MIGHT BE HAPPENING
 
Maybe they're announcing Fallout 4? It's a major PC franchise an all. The picture is just a close up of some power armor!

*Wishful thinking*

I'm putting my money on a new IP. Between Minecraft, Gears, and Rare planning on using its IPs after over a decade of stagnation, I feel like they're trying to build up some brand awareness.
