A big move for Softbank into the gaming world, and a big investment for Finnish gaming juggernaut Supercell. The company is selling a 51% stake for $1.5 billion to Japan’s SoftBank and GungHo OnLine Entertainment, a games developer.
GungHo and Supercell have a pre-existing relationship announced earlier this year for in-game collaboration. Softbank has been a major investor not just in mobile networks as a carrier, but also as a investor in services to run across those networks.
Developing. Refresh for updates.
