WebRole and WorkerRole Templates Missing in VS 2015

Question

I have looked far and wide for the answer to this. In Visual Studio 2013 I can easily create a WebRole and WorkerRole solution but in VS 2015 all I can seem to do is create a Website and WebJob.

Has the WebRole and WorkerRole been removed? If not can you explain to me where it is - or why it is missing?

Download the Azure SDK for Visual Studio 2015 from here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/

It should force you to close Visual Studio, but if it doesn't, do so anyways. Once it's installed, you can reboot it.

When you go to add a new project, you can look under Cloud and then choose Azure Cloud Service. This will give you the same old familiar screen, where you can choose a Web Role or Worker Role:
