A report claims that Sony is in ‘advanced board level discussions’ to acquire Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of Rockstar, though it’s likely speculation.
In too-crazy-to-be-true news, Sony is reportedly in talks to acquire Take-Two Interactive. Take-Two is the parent company of both 2K Games and Rockstar Games, meaning it’s the company behind franchises including Grand Theft Auto, Civilization, NBA 2K, and more. According to the report, Sony and Take-Two have already reached “advanced board level discussions” regarding the potential acquisition.
The report comes from Market Watch, citing a quote from Joel Kulina of industry analyst Wedbush Securities.
