One of the largest acquisitions in the gaming industry has come to an end. Take-Two now owns Zynga, one of the largest mobile and online gaming studios. The publishing house had to spend $ 12.7 billion to buy it. 

The agreement was announced in early January 2022 - at that time it was considered the largest in the history of video games. Last week, shareholders gave their approval, after which there were no obstacles in the way. 

Thanks to Zynga, Take-Two now has a list of casual franchises, including Word with Frinds and FarmVilli. Zynga is currently working on Star Wars: Hunters - a shareware network action game in the Star Wars universe.
