Gearbox Acquisition Is Good for Gamers Because It Has ‘So Many New IP Concepts’ It Can Take Risks With



Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford has said that its recent surprise acquisition by THQ Nordic parent company, Embracer Group, is good news for gamers because it allows the studio to explore new ideas and concepts.
In an interview with VentureBeat, Pitchford said that while Gearbox has worked with numerous publishers in the past, the studio has ?so many new IP concepts? that are ?ready to explode,? and it can now take risks without having to look for willing partners.
