I ask dear colleagues, how much is Capcom worth today? And kadokawa (since buying only Fromsoftware would be nearly impossible), how much would the entire Kadokawa conglomerate be worth?

If you ask me... Capcom > Zenimax / From Software > Bethesda Softworks.

SE = 6.31B, Capcom = 5.8B , Bethesda was bough for 7.5B

Kadokawa  = 4B iirc

Thanks.
Capcom: A "hypothetical" 6B on capcom... not sure it's a good deal. Resident Evil and Monster Hunter are big, Street Fighter, DMC are very solid, and Cacom in house talen is great, they can create some amazing games, but 6B!? damn, that's alot of money!

Kadokawa+From : About Kadokawa... the thing is more complex here. In my view From Software is an icing on the cake, the real gold would be all of kadokawa's anime/movie/entertainment productions. With that, I think Sony is the only one among the "Big 3" that would be interested in buying Kadokawa and buying "only From Software" is unlikely.

Square Enix : SE is a trap for Sony, it would be very expensive and not much would change.... Their games Sell best on Playstation, no one would buy SE and put away the place where 70% of sales come from.
