Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund is exploring a merger between Electronic Arts and Savvy Games Group to coordinate its expanding gaming portfolio, Bloomberg reported on Sept. 10. The combination would bring EA franchises including EA Sports FC, Madden NFL, Battlefield and The Sims together with Savvy assets such as Monopoly Go and Pokemon Go. PIF completed a $55 billion leveraged buyout of EA in early August 2026, acquiring approximately 93% of its shares and taking the publisher private. Savvy has also acquired Scopely and Niantic’s Pokemon Go business, while its planned $6 billion purchase of Moonton remains outstanding. No final decision has been made, and any combination could face extensive regulatory review because of the companies’ scale and PIF’s status as a state-owned investor. The moves form part of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 effort to diversify beyond oil, with PIF committing well north of $60 billion to gaming in a short period.
