In December last year, Sony became the largest shareholder in Elden Ring developer FromSoftware's parent company, Kadokawa, and both companies are expecting the arrangement to lead to more games.
Kadokawa doesn't just publish video games, but lots of manga and anime, too. Its profits are up 16.7% and its gaming division saw 40% growth "thanks to DLC for Elden Ring contributing to domestic and international revenue," according to an earnings report.
