Disney Reportedly Wants To Acquire Epic Games
Tech journalist Alex Heath reported that senior executives at Disney are considering acquiring Epic Games, seeing it as a natural fit for park integration and a way to challenge Roblox. However, ongoing legal battles faced by Epic Games with Apple and Google, along with Epic's founder-controlled structure, may deter Disney. The report comes as Epic Games recently laid off over 1,000 employees due to a drop in Fortnite engagement.
