Tencent Acquires Majority Stake in Kuro Games, Boosting Wuthering Waves' Future
Tencent's expansion in the gaming industry continues with the acquisition of a 51% controlling stake in Kuro Games, the developer behind the popular action RPG, Wuthering Waves. This follows earlier rumors in March, with Tencent purchasing a 37% share from Hero Entertainment, becoming the sole external shareholder.
Kuro Games assures employees that its independent operations will remain unchanged, mirroring Tencent's approach with studios like Riot Games and Supercell. This strategic investment by Tencent, already a major player with stakes in Ubisoft, Activision Blizzard, and FromSoftware, significantly strengthens Kuro Games' position in the adventure RPG market.
Wuthering Waves itself is experiencing a period of growth. The current 1.4 update features the new Somnoire: Illusive Realms mode, two new characters, weapons, and upgrades. Players can also utilize in-game codes for additional rewards.
The upcoming version 2.0 update promises even more, introducing the new explorable nation, Rinascita, along with characters Carlotta and Roccia. Crucially, Wuthering Waves will finally launch on PlayStation 5, expanding its reach across all major platforms.
Tencent's investment ensures Kuro Games' long-term stability, paving the way for future success for Wuthering Waves and subsequent projects.
