Sega köper upp Amplitude, "stärker position på PC-marknaden"

Utgivaren Sega har nyligen utannonserat att de köpt upp den franska utveclaren Amplitude Studios. Studion är kanske mest känd för Endless-serien, vilket inbegriper titlar som Endless Space, Endless Legend och Dungeons of the Endless. Enligt Sega Europes president och chief operating officer Jurgen Post (via GamesIndustry) kommer köpet stärka företagets position i PC-spelmarknaden då Amplitude ansluter sig till andra Sega-företag som Creative Assembly, Sports Interactive och Relic Entertainment.

"To have the opportunity to add a studio with the growing reputation of Amplitude's, to the SEGA family, is an exciting one and reinforces SEGA Europe's position as a market leader in publishing high quality PC games."

"Culturally, Amplitude are a fantastic fit for the business as they not only produce great games, but also have a proven track record in listening to their fans and directly involving them in the ongoing development of their games through their GAMES2GETHER system."
