BY JORDAN OLOMAN A rumor currently doing the rounds suggests that Microsoft
has considered acquiring EA, Valve and PUBG Corp.

"A reliable source close to Microsoft" told Polygon the news, with reports of
"internal shifts" at Microsoft creating the necessary situation for an
acquisition.

SuperDataResearch analyst Joost Van Dreunen further told Polygon that he
expects more news about an acquisition soon.

"Because of where we are in the lifecycle of all these things, I’m expecting
to hear Microsoft announce something very, very shortly".

This follows the promotion of Xbox head Phil Spencer to Microsoft's senior
leadership team, which he deemed "a great show of commitment" to its gaming
portfolio.

A large acquisition of this nature, especially of publishing titan EA, would
be a substantial step in bolstering Microsoft's gaming software division.

This rumored development would not mark the first time Microsoft has acquired
another company, previously paying $2.5 Billion for Minecraft developers
Mojang in 2014.

In regards to PUBG Corp, this move would certainly capitalize on the success
of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds following its exclusive release through the
Xbox Game Preview program.

A separate rumor circulated in October suggests that the exclusivity deal
could be extended even further

IGN has reached out to representatives from EA, Valve, and PUBG Corp for
comment.

好像是因為XboX情況不好所以打算收購這幾家公司？

但Valve不可能吧！

我記得當年微軟說要跟Valve買Steam時，Valve回：要賣給你？那我寧願收掉。

感覺上更像是炒作。
