Crystal Dynamics, Eidos-Montreal, and more have been acquired by the Embracer Group

300 million? That's a absolute steal :eek: Square must be in some real trouble, This is the kind of moves AMD would make during the mid 2010's.
 
I'd say this is a good thing considering the Embracer Group are THQ Nordic who has a lot of great IP's, Square Enix only really focuses on Final Fantasy and has let so many good IP's go to waste like Deus Ex, Thief, Legacy of Kain etc... considering how popular cyberpunk styles games and vampire games are the LoK series and Deus Ex series should've had multiple games out in the last few years.
 
Probably a good deal.

Though I don't think they are planning Blockchain in games. They seem to be transitioning to more of an all in one provider (AI/Cloud) and using their Japanese IP game library to leverage future technology they are developing.

That's how it comes off to me.
