It is a fact that with the pandemic process, human beings have entered a pause process. Ending this period, which began with toilet paper wars, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a misfortune that only our generation could experience. The economic crisis brought about by the process has also affected many sectors, including the gaming world.
With this crisis, the doors of a new era have opened in the game industry. Especially the big manufacturers that Microsoft has started to buy from the right to the left have started to make the sector nervous. For this reason, explanations came from many giant brands one after another. If you remember, Ubisoft, which is known together with Microsoft, made a statement in a short time that “we are not for sale”.
Here’s a statement from Take-Two Interactive, the main brand of Rockstar and 2K. Speaking to IGN, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick underlined that shareholders are their priority in these matters, underlining that they will remain independent “for the time being”.
Of course, it’s hard to predict how much Take-Two will be able to resist this wave. But it seems that the studio will continue its life alone for a while.
