Amazon continues to aim to go all out in the world of video games, and proof of this is the rumor that we bring you today. According to a Lord of the Rings fan page with a fairly good reputation Embracer Group would have sold the franchise Tomb Raider to Amazon in a settlement more than 600 million dollars. Although the focus of the article is focused on Tolkien’s franchises (as is logical), the following is said about Tomb Raider:
Embracer Group has just sold the rights to “Tomb Raider” to Amazon for a price that, as we can exclusively reveal, amounts to approximately 600 million euros, making it the second largest purchase by Amazon after the acquisition of the rights. television shows of “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power”. So this puts into perspective the cost and prices that Embracer may be looking at.
In this way, Amazon’s plans would go through making a Tomb Raider interconnected universe with series and videogames that are related to each other. We remind you that tomb raider rights previously belonged to Square Enixwhich sold them to the Embracer Group in the middle of last year.
