As spotted by GamesRadar, Ybarra weighed in on the hot news of the week—the report that Sony was sniffing around Kadokawa, which was later confirmed in a statement which said Kadokawa had received "an initial letter of intent to acquire the company's shares." In what I would argue is a rather bold claim, Ybarra tweeted: "If Sony does purchase FromSoftware, it's probably a top 2 acquisition in video gaming in the last 15+ years if not ever (the other being Minecraft to Microsoft for only $2.5B)."
Ybarra says that FromSoftware is "incredible," creating games that are "AAA and epic," whatever that means. "The only thing bigger would be buying Valve or Nintendo," Ybarra concludes. "And I don't see either of those happening in any scenario. Exciting times."
