Sumo Group, an owner of Sumo Digital, has become the latest video game developer in which Tencent has taken a stake. The Chinese organization has entered a concurrence with Perwyn, a setup speculator in the Group and its Crackdown 3 studio, to secure 15 million offers, which will give Tencent a 9.96% enthusiasm for the engineer.

“We are charmed that Tencent have decided to get a shareholding in the organization, and we anticipate working with Tencent to investigate co-advancement openings.”

“We are happy to put resources into Sumo Group, a main autonomous co-advancement studio. We anticipate supporting Sumo’s development and investigating joint efforts with the Company to bring progressively intelligent diversion encounters to worldwide spectators.”
