Arrowhead’s future and three acquisitions

The latest GamesIndustry.biz Microcast is now available in both podcast and video formats and can be viewed below.

This week we are discussing (to the extent we can, given how early in the transition we are) our change in ownership with IGN’s parent company, Ziff Davis, acquiring Gamer Network Ltd and its brands, which include GamesIndustry.biz and our sister sites Eurogamer, VG247, Rock Paper Shotgun and more.

We also talk about the new management of Arrowhead Games, the developer of Helldivers 2, as well as the studio’s future ambitions, which you can read more about in Chris’s interview on the website.

Finally, we reflect on the impact of other acquisitions announced last week; namely Nintendo taking Shiver Entertainment away from Embracer Group and Atari ending the first console war by acquiring the Intellivision brand.
