Sony May Acquire Elden Ring and Dragon Quest Conglomerate Kadokawa

Author : Gabriella Update:Jan 22,2025

Sony洽谈收购日本巨头角川集团,意图拓展娱乐版图

Sony或将收购拥有《艾尔登法环》和《勇者斗恶龙》版权的角川集团

据报道,索尼集团正在与日本大型企业集团角川公司进行收购谈判,以期壮大其娱乐业务版图。目前,索尼已持有角川公司2%的股份,以及角川旗下工作室FromSoftware(以其广受好评的魂系游戏《艾尔登法环》而闻名)14.09%的股份。

进军多元化媒体领域

科技巨头索尼正与日本大型企业集团角川公司进行早期收购谈判,旨在“拓展其娱乐产品组合”。此次收购对索尼大有裨益,因为角川公司旗下拥有多家子公司,包括FromSoftware(《艾尔登法环》、《装甲核心》)、Spike Chunsoft(《勇者斗恶龙》、《宝可梦不可思议迷宫》)和Acquire(《八方旅人》、《马里奥与路易吉RPG系列》)。此外,在游戏领域之外,角川集团还以其多家媒体制作公司而闻名,这些公司涉足动画制作、图书和漫画出版。

此次收购无疑将帮助索尼实现其在娱乐领域的战略目标,扩展其业务范围至其他媒体形式。正如路透社所指出的,“索尼集团希望通过收购获得作品和内容版权,使其盈利结构不那么依赖于爆款作品。”如果一切顺利,交易协议有望在2024年底达成。然而,截至目前,索尼和角川均拒绝就此事发表评论。

角川股价暴涨,但粉丝担忧重重

受此消息影响,角川公司股价创历史新高,日涨幅达23%,达到每日涨停限制。股价从路透社发布消息前的3032日元上涨至4439日元。索尼的股价也随之上涨了2.86%。

然而,网民对这一消息的反应褒贬不一,许多人表达了对索尼及其近期收购的担忧,这些收购的结果并不尽如人意。最近的例子是索尼于2023年中收购的Firewalk工作室突然关闭,仅仅一年后,其多人射击游戏《Concord》反响不佳后便宣告倒闭。即使拥有像《艾尔登法环》这样备受赞誉的IP,粉丝们也担心索尼的收购会影响FromSoftware及其作品的未来。

其他人则从动漫和媒体的角度来看待此事,如果这笔交易最终达成,像索尼这样的科技巨头将垄断西方动漫的发行。索尼目前拥有热门动漫流媒体网站Crunchyroll,而获得《辉夜大小姐想让我告白》、《Re:从零开始的异世界生活》和《美味监狱》等一系列热门IP的版权,也将巩固其在动漫行业的领导地位。
