Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Sources: Borderlands Studio Will Escape The Most Divisive Company In Gaming KOTAKU.COM Gearbox is leaving the Embracer fallout behind as devs wait for a answers on what’s next Quote Embracer bought Borderlands maker Gearbox Entertainment for $1.3 billion back in early 2021 amid an unprecedented acquisition spree that’s since turned into a financial disaster. Now, just three years later, Kotaku has learned that Gearbox is closer than ever to being sold out from under what is arguably the most hated company in gaming. Gearbox CEO and co-founder Randy Pitchford held a town hall with staff earlier this week in which he told employees that a decision had been made regarding the studio’s future, with more information to be shared next month, according to two sources familiar with the meeting. For months now Pitchford has told developers at Gearbox that there were three possible scenarios: stay with Embracer, sell to someone else, or finance a buyout and go back to being independently run. Kotaku understands that the decision was made to sell, and a deal is in the late stages of being finalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
