NCSoft would be my guess. I can't start to guess which billion dollar worth US based company is willing to sell right now.

Nvidia is half the size of tencent and bought arm for 40 billion. The current situation is making these numbers possible because money is basically free
Is there some reason you posted this twice lol. I doubt it, though. For one, Tencent isn't going to be raising that much for Devolver, and Devolver has been very successful with avoiding big publishers, staying small and craving a big niche in the indie scene. Wouldn't make much sense either way.
Because his job would probably preclude him from putting the guess out into the public sphere.
PUBG and PUBG Mobile remains absolutely *massive* in Asia, so I think it would make a lot of sense to acquire (or at least become the primary shareholder) Krafton/Bluehole.
I could see why Bungie would be an attractive target if they own the Destiny IP (right???) and are in the middle of planning another big self financed, property there might be a lot of room for growth in the next couple of years if TenCent for looking for exploitable, cross platform properties.
Yeah I don't really get it either lol. Seems like attention seeking without wanting to actually stick their neck out
Outside of Destiny they don't exactly bring a lot of valuable IP to the table. I could see them sniffing a billion, but multiple billions is a stretch.
Activision's market cap is over 70 billion dollars.. That's... way too much.
What do you mean ? Tencent is already one of the biggest gaming corp in the world.
Tencent has been heavily invested in games for like the last decade. There is no 'getting into,' they are very much into already lol, even if it's been more indirect.
Tencent is the biggest gaming publisher/developer on earth.
$73 billion is the market cap, they will need many more to convince shareholders to sell
"safe bet" ?
My opinion of then haven't changed since then.
I guess I should phrase it as please stop worming further in to games. Thanks.
This is only the beginning. The big players have noted where the money is being generated
I'm gonna take a guess but, probably by investment and revenue alone, Tencent is more "into games" than either Sony or Microsoft :v
Go big or go home lol. Kind of joking but they have many connections it wouldn't surprise me
Billions, you say?
Idunno how much game companies are worth tbh. Could they buy Blizzard from Activision for that amount? 2K games? WB Games?
