Starting with the release of Age of Empires (Ensemble Studios, 1997), the Age of Empires series became a popular strategy series that managed to survive the demise of its original developer in 2009. Yet despite recent releases, including Age of Empires (Smoking Gun interactive, 2014) for Windows platforms, none of the more recent games have surpassed Age of Empires II (Ensemble Studios, 1999) in terms of popularity on the eSports tournament scene. As of 11 February 2016 Kang "iamgrunt" Byung Geon (South Korea) had earned $78,666.67 playing Age of Empires II tournaments.
Kang "iamgrunt" Byung Geon is also the highest-earning Age of Empires III (Ensemble Studios, 2005) player, with winnings of $17,000 on the title.
