Disney buying Black Rock “made no sense”.
Epic Games’ European boss Mike Gamble has blamed the recent spate of high-profile triple-A game developer closures on “stupid acquisitions” made by publishers.
Gamble highlighted Disney Interactive’s purchase of Pure and Split/Second developer Black Rock, which recently closed down, as an example.
“It’s happened because of stupid acquisitions,” he told Eurogamer at Epic Games’ recent Unreal Engine University day in London.
