Rumor: Sony to acquire Kadokawa Corporation

I don't see why it's very unlikely. They literally have a whole gaming division but they are going to let Kadokawa continue to act independently instead of moving it in house to their own division? What would be the incentive to do that? Especially after the disaster that happened with them letting Bungie do exactly what you're suggesting.

The funny part is that Sony Music has published their own games on other platforms.

A lot of this will be dependent on what exactly Sony does with Kadokawa. If they keep them whole as a new company under Sony Group or Sony Music/Sony Pictures, then they'd likely publish elsewhere.

If they split up Kadokawa into different divisions, giving SIE the gaming parts, then they'd likely go exclusive.
