Jagexin omistava firma etsii ostajaa osuudelleen brittistudiosta

Vuonna 2016 RuneScape-kehittäjä Jagexin osti Fukong Interactive. Yahoo Financen mukaan Fukong on ilmoittanut etsivänsä ostajaa omalle osuudelleen Jagexista.

Jagexin edustaja kommentoi asiaa Redditissä sanoen, että Fukongin entinen puheenjohtaja erosi 28.12., ja uusi astui virkaansa 2.1. Muutoksen seurauksena uudet tuulet puhaltavat, ja sen seurauksena Jagexin osuutta ollaan nyt myymässä kokonaan tai osittain.

"On January 23rd, Fukong Interactive issued a regulatory statement to advise the Chinese financial market that it is planning a major reorganisation and is considering sale of assets, with the partial or full sale of Jagex as a potential option. A sale of assets is one of multiple routes Fukong Interactive has available as it restructures and, by making this initial statement to the market, Fukong can now begin exploring such options."

"Whatever the outcome of Fukong's restructure, it won't change how you play RuneScape or Old School, and it doesn't affect our plans as we continue to invest in growing Jagex, RuneScape and Old School, building on our record-breaking years, and ensuring we bring you all the new content and updates we have in the works, in addition to more quality of life improvements."
