Forums - Gaming Discussion - Exclusive: Tencent Seeks To Raise Stake In Ubisoft - Sources

Dang, idk if Tencent is smart or not. I wonder why now? When Ubisoft isn't doing too hot, but this allows China to crack into the global market easier I guess. Tencent is all about money, they are hella rich, hate the heck out of them but that goes the same with other multibillionaire companies. It really is turning out to be some acquisition war...

Tencent has more than enough money to invest in the long run. They are gaining a massive over the entire gaming industry, so this move right now when Ubisoft is in bad shape makes sense for them. I hope Ubisoft stays independent from Tencent, we don't need more concentration of companies in so few hands...



You know it deserves the GOTY.

it would have, but then they paid the premium price so it doesn't really make sense financially. But most likely it's a mental price
