Elden Ring is one of the biggest video games in the world, selling over 25 million copies before the launch of the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. The action-RPG was also GameSpot’s Game of the Year for 2022.Sony, parent company of PlayStation, is reportedly in discussions to purchase Kadokawa, parent company of Elden Ring maker From Software. The two companies have been talking, and it’s apparently possible an acquisition could be announced in the weeks ahead.Kadokawa’s portfolio doesn’t just include gaming, though. The company also has a hand in anime and manga, behind franchises like Re:Zero and Delicious in Dungeon. Do you think that acquisition of startups is giving big tech companies a hand to monopolize the market ?
