To get stronger in the fight against Xbox, Sony may buy Square Enix

Just yesterday, we learned that Embracer Group, a large and still little-known company in wide circles, has acquired a part of Square Enix for $300 million. Now there is evidence that the rest of Square Enix can be sold.

To get stronger in the fight against Xbox, Sony may buy Square Enix

Recall that Embracer Group bought the Crystal Dynamics, Eidos-Montreal and Square Enix Montreal studios, at the same time acquiring the rights to the Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, Thief, Legacy of Kain and other franchises. Of course, Square Enix itself still has many assets and trademarks. And Sony can get it all.

Previously, such rumors have already been, but now they have been confirmed by well-known journalist Jeff Grubb in gaming circles. He said that this could be the largest acquisition, which was first talked about by insiders, and then confirmed by Sony itself. Square Enix is ​​currently worth $4.85 billion, which is a significant amount for Sony.

Grubb notes that these are still rumors and should be treated accordingly, but he has a very good reputation. In this regard, it is possible that the sale of some of the Embracer Group’s assets is preparation for a deal with Sony.
