Amazon presents Nexon? It could happen.
Nexon’s massive $9 billion sale of controlling interest in the company continues to attract major players. VentureBeat is reporting that Amazon, Comcast, and Electronic Arts have all put in bids to buy out the video game company, whose founder is putting up 98.64% of his stake.
The Nexon sale began back in early January, sending potential buyers swarming around the lucrative developer and publisher. Other companies that have submitted bids include Kakao, Tencent, and Netmarble. In addition to all of these suitors, VentureBeat said that investor firms are putting together their own offers.
Nexon is a major player in the eastern MMORPG space, with titles such as Mabinogi, MapleStory 2, AxE, and the upcoming Astellia in its library.
