Embracer’s Potential Sale of Gearbox: Which Company would be the Best Fit?

2023-09-11 15:15:17

Just two years ago, Swedish giant Embracer acquired the video game franchise, and news regarding developers and even publishers was common. One of the biggest acquisitions was in 2021, when they acquired Borderlands developer Gearbox for approximately $1.3 billion. A lot has changed at Embracer since then, with some games not performing as well as expected (most recently Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning and Saints Row), and reportedly missing out on big opportunities while also releasing fewer games than expected. , while other games were canceled. Earlier this year, things went south. Now Embracer appears to be canceling and selling properties at the same rate they previously purchased them, and according to a new report from Archyde.com, they are now considering selling Gearbox. Several companies (we can imagine Microsoft, Sony and Tencent being among them) are said to have expressed interest in acquiring the giant, but so far, there has been nothing official. Is there any company you think would be particularly good for Gearbox if Embracer decided to sell them?
