Sony has invested $1bn in Fortnite maker Epic Games. This latest investment follows on from the $200m Sony put towards Epic last April.
“As a creative entertainment company, we are thrilled to invest in Epic to deepen our relationship in the metaverse field, a space where creators and users share their time,” Kenichiro Yoshida, Chairman, President and CEO of Sony Group Corporation, said today.
“We are also confident that Epic’s expertise, including their powerful game engine, combined with Sony’s technologies, will accelerate our various efforts such as the development of new digital fan experiences in sports and our virtual production initiatives.”
