Embracer Group It could be said that it is one of the companies that has the most studies among its ranks, but it seems that it did not seem enough to it, because it has announced the acquisition of nine video game companieswhich has considerably increased the number of products that will be published with their label.
Pay close attention to the list below, because some studies are well known in the industry:
Bitwave Games
Bitwave Games has celebrated this acquisition to expand the ranks of its in-house development team and create a publishing team. Among his future projects is the intention to bring Toaplan’s most prestigious shoot’em up to PC and he also intends to bring the classic to life Gimmick!
Gioteck
In the case of Gioteck we have one of Europe’s leading accessory brands that has been in business for more than two decades.
Limited Run Games
Limited Run Games is probably one of the best known companies in charge of distributing physical and collector’s editions of many video games, especially those that have only seen the light in digital format.
Middle-Earth Enterprises
Another of the largest acquisitions has been that of Middle-Earth Entreprises, which owns the rights to movies, video games, board games, merchandising, theme parks, etc., that are related to the Lord of the Rings universe brought to life by JRR Tolkien. This all includes the upcoming Amazon series, The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power
