As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, this news has sent a thrill down my spine. If Sony manages to acquire Kadokawa Group, it would mean that the masterminds behind the Dark Souls and Sekiro series could be fully integrated into the PlayStation family. This prospect is nothing short of exhilarating.
It’s no longer just a rumor that Sony might acquire FromSoftware’s parent company, the Kadokawa Group. In fact, Sony has officially acknowledged their interest, stating they have already conveyed “preliminary plans” regarding a potential purchase.
According to a recent report from Yahoo Japan, Sony has expressed interest in acquiring Kadokawa Group.
The rumor about Sony potentially buying Kadokawa Group surfaced around mid-November, with Reuters being the first to report on this subject based on sources they spoke with. It’s known that Sony currently holds 2% of Kadokawa shares and has substantially invested in the wellbeing of FromSoftware. However, prior to this, Sony had not made any official statement about these discussions. Now that it has been confirmed, we can be certain that negotiations are indeed taking place, although they may be happening discreetly. It’s important to mention that while Kadokawa does own FromSoftware, it also has significant investments in various sectors such as TV, anime, streaming, and media in Japan.
