索尼或将收购《艾尔登法环》和《勇者斗恶龙》母公司角川集团

索尼据报道正与日本大型企业集团角川集团进行收购谈判,旨在扩大其娱乐版图,丰富其内容库。 让我们深入了解这起潜在的收购及其可能的影响。

进军多元化媒体领域

科技巨头索尼正与日本大型企业集团角川集团进行早期收购谈判,旨在“壮大其娱乐产品组合”。目前,索尼已持有角川2%的股份,以及角川旗下工作室FromSoftware(以其广受好评的魂系动作角色扮演游戏《艾尔登法环》而闻名)14.09%的股份。

收购角川集团将极大地利好索尼,因为该集团拥有多家子公司,包括FromSoftware(《艾尔登法环》、《装甲核心》)、Spike Chunsoft(《勇者斗恶龙》、《神奇宝贝不可思议迷宫》)和Acquire(《八方旅人》、《马里奥与路易吉RPG》)。此外,在游戏领域之外,角川集团还以其多家从事动画制作、书籍和漫画出版的媒体公司而闻名。

因此,此次收购无疑将实现索尼在娱乐领域的扩张目标,将其业务扩展到其他媒体形式。正如路透社所指出的那样,“索尼集团希望通过收购获得作品和内容的权利,使其利润结构不那么依赖于热门作品。”如果一切顺利,并达成协议,则可能在2024年底签署。然而,截至撰写本文时,索尼和角川均拒绝就此事发表评论。

角川股价暴涨,但粉丝担忧

受此消息影响,角川股价创下历史新高,日涨幅达23%,达到每日涨停板。在路透社发布消息之前,股价为3032日元,此后上涨至4439日元。索尼的股价也上涨了2.86%。

然而,网民对这一消息的反应较为冷淡,许多人表达了对索尼及其近期收购的担忧,这些收购的未来前景并不乐观。最近的例子是索尼在2023年中收购的Firewalk工作室突然关闭,仅仅一年后,由于其多人射击游戏《Concord》的反响不佳而被迫解散。即使拥有像《艾尔登法环》这样备受赞誉的IP,粉丝们也担心索尼的收购会影响FromSoftware及其作品。

其他人则从动画和媒体的角度来看待此事,如果这笔交易达成,像索尼这样的科技巨头将垄断西方动画的发行。索尼目前拥有热门动画流媒体网站Crunchyroll,而获得《辉夜大小姐想让我告白》、《Re:从零开始的异世界生活》和《美味的地下城》等一系列热门IP的访问权限,也将巩固其在动画行业的领先地位。
