Video Transcript

Tencent, who is the publisher behind such online games as PUBG Mobile, who I seem to be reporting on a lot lately, have acquired Sumo Digital, which is a British game developer behind Little Big Planet, and they bought it for $1.27 billion which is £900,000,000. So it seems like Tencent have got money to burn and they're looking to expand because just a couple of days ago we reported on Tencent trying to take over some of their rivals in China. It's interesting to see that. And the next bit of news for today, the next or the newest XCOM game if you're into the XCOM franchise is a free-to-play mobile game, so the game is called XCOM Legends and you can download it in some territories. I haven't looked at it yet, but if you're into that style of gameplay, then know that the next XCOM game is on mobile And then last bit of news for today. Ubisoft has delayed Rainbow Six Extraction until Jan 2022* and that comes after Riders Republic was delayed until October. I don't mind game delays if it means higher quality at the end of it.
