Sony is reportedly in talks to buy Japanese media giant Kadokawa Corporation, the current majority owner of Elden Ring, Bloodborne, and Dark Souls developer FromSoftware, in an attempt to expand its portfolio of entertainment stuff.
This is according to Reuters, which cites two sources as having revealed that talks between Sony and Kadokawa are “ongoing”, with a deal potentially being sealed “in the coming weeks” if this business chatter is successful.
Sony already owns a stake in FromSoftware itself of around 14%, with Chinese giant Tencent owning just over 16%, while Kadokawa has the biggest portion, at around 70%.
