Nice while it lasted…

Wikipedia lists their gaming properties as:
- Spike Chunsoft
- FromSoftware (69.66%)
- Acquire
Acquire is a name I associate most with Tenchu but it looks like the developed the Mario & Luigi game that released a week or so ago.
Spike Chunsoft also developed the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games and, fairly recently, the new Dragonball game that, as far as I know, got good reception.
Kinda lame that these developers will be locked to PS or (months after release) Steam with PSN Account.
EDIT: And according to comments from Reddit, Kadokawa is a huge corporation that also distributes anime, manga and light novels. This isn’t just about games.
I just went on a rabbit hole of wikipedia. This would be a huge buy of MANY IPs.
This would be massive, Kadokawa is a hell of a lot more than just Elden Ring. They’re one of the biggest media publishers in Japan. Books, manga, anime, games, you name it.
