Electronic Arts have announced yesterday that they have reached a deal with developer and publisher of mobile games, Glu Mobile, worth $2.1 billion. Glu has offices in San Francisco, Foster City, Toronto and Hyderabad, and has about 800 employees, of which as many as 500 are developers.
Their game library consists of titles such as: Covet Fashion, Deer Hunter, Design Home, Diner Dash, Disney Sorcerer's Arena, MLB Tap Sports Baseball, and Kim Kardashian Hollywood.
With this move, EA wants to combine its successful IPs with the creativity of Glu studio, which has perfected building and monetizing sports and casual mobile games.
EA predicts that all commitments around this deal could be completed by June 31, which means that the acquisition of Glu Mobile will be completed in the second half of this year.
