Sony Eyes Acquisition of FromSoftware, Parent Company Confirms Interest

Kadokawa, the owner of FromSoftware, has confirmed receiving an initial letter of intent from Sony to acquire its shares, though no decision has been made yet. This potential acquisition could impact popular gaming franchises like Dark Souls and Elden Ring, as well as expand Sony's influence in anime through Kadokawa's other assets. Sony already holds rights to PlayStation exclusives like Bloodborne and Demon's Souls, and the acquisition could lead to further developments in these franchises.
