Embracer Group CEO Lars Wingefors says "a number of external approvals", which potentially includes licensers, are needed to close the transaction.

The Embracer Group reveals that the two latest mainline instalments in the Deus Ex franchise have collectively sold over 12 million copes to date.
The two Marvel games lost Square Enix $200 million in a little under two years and were responsible for the sale of western studios to Embracer, according to an analyst.
Studio head David Anfossi says joining the Embracer Group will "take Eidos to the next level and make its talents, the gamers, and you very happy.”
Investments in blockchain, AI and the cloud along with better aligning its Tokyo organization and overseas publishing are some of the reasons.
It's also purchasing IPs like Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, Thief, and Legacy of Kain, along with over 50 back-catalogue titles for $300 million.
"We did everything we could but that's the reality of the market," says creative director Jean-Francois Dugas while touting the game as "a great ride."

Sales continued to grow following launch, however, and the Japanese publisher expects that to continue going forward.
Speaking in a recent podcast, senior creative director of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy shared the reason why the studio chose the ragtag team of superhero for their game.
