If Sony is going to buy someone, they should buy Epic imo. Fortnite is cool but Unreal Engine would give them a solid way to counteract Microsoft. Every copy of Hellblade 2 for example would give Sony a cut. Plus Unreal is becoming very popular in film so Sony would benefit outside of games too.agree with you epic games bit. don't they also own a few studios such as psyonix, harmonix, and mediatonic. more?
Epic Games Store could give Sony a quick PC storefront.
I hope they make a big developer fund and greenlight more unique games. Sony has cinemattic AAA perfected but PlayStation could become the best place to play novel big budget games too. Make an rpg that doesn't feel like any other rpg, make a shooter that doesn't feel like any other shooter, etc. I think Sony would underperform if they just tried to make direct Halo/COD competitors.
we'll first off,.. Sony is already doing a lot of 2.I'm saying they should crank it up.
secondly, it doesn't have to be either or. grab and develop the small studios but grab at least 1 publisher to change the narrative.Will be interesting to see what happens.
Sony need to make some acquisitions and build up their IPs and studios. If its true that MS cant make anymore acquisitions for 18 months then Sony need to jump on that.I don't think they legally can't make anymore, but if they tried it would likely jeopardize buying Activision.
Buy From software. Buy their whole parent company. This would be huge for Sony and not only help them in the west but also in Japan a lot.I'd love this, but probably more expensive than it would really be worth it for Sony.
Deviation, haven entertainment and firewalk, if the games they make are successful they should have deals ready to buy them.I think they're going to buy at least the first two. They seem to be giving them a lot of money.
I don't think they legally can't make anymore, but if they tried it would likely jeopardize buying Activision.Well regarding kadokawa/from software. If they are profitable and make money, it just might be worth it for more than just Fromsoftware.
There's already congresspeople talking about antitrust issues with the current acquisition. If MS were to attempt another acquisition, it would be much more likely to cause the current one to fail, which would be expensive for them. They would have to pay Activision a few billion dollars if it doesn't go through.

how much money did Sony say they've set aside for aquisitions. it was a few billion right?Across all departments, they said they expect to spend $18.6 billion over the next 3 years (this was a year ago), focusing on IP acquisition, stock buyback.

IP acquisition being the priority.
