An investment group led by the Saudi Public Investment Fund has taken over Electronic Arts, one of the largest digital entertainment and video game companies, following a deal valued at $210 per share, turning the company into a private entity. This move aligns with Saudi Arabia's strategy to promote the gaming and e-sports industry, as the country seeks to strengthen its position as a global hub for this sector and aim for contributions exceeding 50 billion riyals to the gross domestic product.
