Sega has denied rumors that the company was going to be acquired by Microsoftanother company that, remember, is currently mired in a monumental attempt to acquire Activision Blizzard, and that at the moment it is not going as smoothly as they would like.
In this case, Shuji Utsumi, Sega’s COO, has denied these rumors in an interview by Bloomberg, after being asked about the possible purchase by Microsoft. However, after denying them, Yes, he has admitted that both companies have a very good working relationship.
So much so that, as we read in the quote on these linesMicrosoft holds Sega in higher esteem than Nintendosomething that might not seem so considering the agreement that was made relatively recently about bringing Call of Duty to Nintendo consoles for at least 10 years –although this could be more of a way to convince the regulators.
Be that as it may, although Sega has denied any intention to sell to Microsoft, it is also possible to take Microsoft’s position, who we doubt that they have much energy left to engage in a new process like the one they are currently immersed in with Activision Blizzard.
