The Embracer Group has continued to grow in recent years with over 30 acquisitions in 2021 alone, which included Borderlands developer Gearbox Entertainment. Embracer also has multiple parent groups that include Koch Media, Saber Interactive, THQ Nordic, and more.
Embracer Group in its latest earnings report revealed its studios are working on over 25 AAA games that are planned to launch by March 2026. Overall, its 111 internal studios and publishers have 216 projects in development.
The company talking about recent acquisitions said that "Upon closing of these transactions, Embracer Group will have one of the most diversified portfolio of IPs across the games industry.
"The dependency on any single title or IP is expected to be less than five percent of group net sales, hopefully making our operational performance even more predictable."

PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope a lot of those games sell a hell of a lot of copies to pay for their massive acquisition spree.
How the hell they have 216 projects but target to release only 26 on the next 4 years on 111 devs? Seems like they have a lot of subpar stuff mixed
25 AAA games, not 25 games in total. They have plenty of smaller titles in development.
In about ten years, we're going to be reading articles like "The Rise and Fall of Embracer Group: How a Conglomerate Went Bankrupt."
wtf, 216 projects, 25 AAA games, and 111 studios! Those are ridiculous numbers. Especially since I have never even heard of Embracer Group before lol
They own every western developer that isn't owned by Microsoft, Sony, Ubisoft, or EA.
Embracer is now the umbrella for formerly THQ Nordic. They bought a lot of devs, but many of them are small, like 10-50 people small. They own bigger devs too though, like Koch Media (including Deep Silver) and Gearbox.
Cool, that's like a game every week. If any of it is good, I'm sure we will hear about it.
or maybe they just changed their definition of AAA a bit. It's all arbitrary anyway.
