  • SEGA Looking to Buy Up Other Publishers


    It sounds like SEGA is in a bit more of a stable situation since exiting the console business a year or so ago, as according to a new report the company is interested in purchasing some third-party publishers to add to its list of development studios.

    According to a story on Reuters (via Gamespot), the House of Sonic is mostly looking towards publishers in the West - North America and Europe - in an attempt to "strengthen its position in the market and move it closer to the achievement of its goal to be the top publisher in the world."

    THQ and Infogrames, two publishers that have had close connections with SEGA in the past, are name-checked as potential acquisition targets, but one company that is apparently ruled out is FIFA publisher Electronic Arts.

    This may be great news for SEGA and its growth as a third-party publisher. We'll let you know if anything comes of this.


    The Sonic Stadium may link to retailers and earn a small commission on purchases made from users who click those links. These links will only appear in articles related to the product, in an unobtrusive manner, and do not influence our editorial decisions in any way. All proceeds will go to supporting our community and continued coverage of Sonic the Hedgehog. Thank you in advance for your kind support!
