Which studio do you think is potentially next for Sony and Microsoft to buy?
I think the really big ones like EA and Take Two are off limits. They’re far too big and powerful and unlike Zenimax who were looking to sell, I don’t think these two want to sell.
Ubisoft is one that I think could be potentially bought. Their IPs are huge and whoever gets them as exclusives will deal a huge blow. IO interactive and Remedy are potential buys as well
I think the Japanese developers are safe. Microsoft won’t buy them because of the lack of popularity of the console over there and since their games sell well on PlayStation, wouldn’t make sense for Sony to buy them.
wouldn’t surprise me if Sony were to buy Emberlabs. They’re clearly very talented and for a small studio to make a great looking game like Kena is impressive.
who else am I missing?
