Youyan Zaobao: The first hearing on Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard opened today; the president of SE reiterated that NFT games are the company’s future

Hello everyone, the following is the Morning Post of Travel Research brought by the interns:

1. SE President Yosuke Matsuda reiterated in his New Year speech that NFT games will be the future of the company. Matsuda Yosuke said that SE currently has three important investment areas, and NFT games are the one that attracts the most attention. Judging from the current trend, it is speculative investors, not players, who push the game industry to change. SE also has a number of related games under development.

2. The first hearing of Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard was held today. The antitrust agency Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sued Microsoft’s acquisition for alleged monopoly last month, and Microsoft publicly stated that the FTC’s move was unconstitutional.

The outcome of the confrontation with the FTC will be a key factor in whether Microsoft can complete the acquisition.

3. Bandai Namco publicly stated in the recruitment that it will create a 3D action game for Nintendo. The game has not yet announced which Nintendo IP it will be based on.

4. Level-5 stated in its New Year speech that it will announce a new IP game this year, and the long-delayed new work “Inazuma Eleven” will also announce more information at the beginning of this year.

5. Sega disclosed in the recruitment information that they are recruiting developers for a certain game. Two reference links were given in the recruitment, one pointing to Sonic’s official website, and the other pointing to “2020 Tokyo Olympics Authorized Game”, which seems to indicate that the new work is a sports game of the Sonic series.
