Square Enix this week deigned to respond to industry rumors following the publication of a Bloomberg report. According to the company, reports of its potential sale have been greatly exaggerated. Square Enix is not for sale.
The report from Bloomberg Japan is a short one and cites a CTFN report. According to both of these articles, two anonymous bankers claim that several companies have shown interest in buying Square Enix. That’s it — that’s the report. This may have gotten a bit of traction because the company is said to have lost some money following the relatively muted reception of Marvel’s Avengers. But it was somehow solid enough to cause Square Enix’s stock to rise by 12%.
