Is corporate greed really leveling up? Saudi Arabia, alongside its wealth fund allies, is snatching up EA for a staggering $55 billion to take it private. Who needs competition when you can just buy the game, right? This acquisition of the studio behind titles like Battlefield and EA Sports FC raises serious questions about the future of gaming. It feels like we're being pushed to trade our creative freedom for a golden controller held by a few. Where's the fun in that? As an avid gamer, it's disheartening to watch our beloved pastime being monopolized, turning creativity into a cash cow! Will we ever see an indie game that doesn't have to bow down to a Saudi king? Think about that while you tackle your next quest. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/saudi-arabia-is-taking-ea-private-alongside-other-investors #GamingNews #EAGames #CorporateGreed #VideoGames #SaudiInvestment
