In other news, Splash Damage, the studio that has contributed to the video game's multiplayer mode, has been bought by Leyou, a Chinese supplier of poultry meat. According to Polygon, the price was not mentioned in the announcement of the deal, but it should be more than $35 million and less than $150 million. This deal also included the acquisition of Fireteam, which works on online features for other games, and Warchest, which is a game publisher that only publishes digital versions.
Furthermore, this is not the first time the Chinese poultry supplier has purchased a video game and its developer. Earlier this year, the supplier bought the popular third person free to play video game "Warframe" and its developer Digital Extremes.
