Google har som bekendt allerede startet deres eget studie med Jade Raymond i spidsen, og vi vidste allerede at dette var en fast plan for Google. Dog afslørede de for nylig, at de har suppleret ved at købe Typhoon Studios, og det er det første af flere studier som Google har i sinde at købe.
I et interview med GamesIndustry fortæller Jade Raymond, at Google lige nu overvejer flere studiekøb, men at de primært ønske at starte originale nye studier.
"We definitely are looking into it. Right now, apart from this acquisition, we're really focused on also building teams through organic growth. With Typhoon joining, we're going to have two full teams up and running making games in Montreal. There are always pros and cons to acquisitions, and I think when you find the right culture and a really good fit like Typhoon is, it's a no-brainer. But we take this very seriously. We want to build for the long-term. Our whole strategy is a long-term one to make the right decisions."
