Head of Electronic Arts is ready to sell the company. Andrew Wilson shared his view on the Microsoft and Activision deal

Andrew Wilson appeared on CNBC, where he was asked about Microsoft's actions. The head of EA first noted Electronic Arts' strong standing with the biggest brands in its portfolio, and then confirmed his stance.

The Electronic Arts representative spoke highly of the deal, emphasizing that it will allow Microsoft to remain in the industry and continue investing in games.

“I think Microsoft-Activision is a great thing. It means that one of the world's largest companies is going to continue to invest in our industry to help us grow.”

Andrew Wilson further emphasized that Electronic Arts feels comfortable as an independent company that can systematically bring new brands to market and polish its projects. Nevertheless, the CEO states that if the right offer comes along, EA might consider an acquisition.

“But to the extent that we think about our position, certainly as an independent developer and publisher of the world's leading interactive entertainment, we feel very good about our opportunities, and to the extent that there are acquisition opportunities for us, we would certainly look at those.”

It is worth noting that in the past, rumors circulated that Electronic Arts could be the next corporation acquired by one of the tech giants.
