The news dropped earlier this week by a Chinese publication that Hasbro might be in negotiation with Tencent to sell them Dungeons and Dragons (D&D). Also, Larian Studios–the company behind the highly successful Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3)–has been named as the proxy for the negotiations. Considering the source, with no confirmation from Hasbro or Tencent themselves, it’s easy to say, “X to doubt.”
However…
It’s been established that Hasbro lies. One specific case sighted is that they’ve lied by saying they weren’t tanking the value of Magic: The Gathering (MtG) trading cards. Bank of America looked into it and said otherwise. So, Hasbro’s denial of this story cannot be believed at face value.
There’s credibility to this story in that Larian has a stake in this deal as they are partly owned by Tencent. On the other side, Hasbro has been quietly shopping D&D around, so who’s to say Tencent is their latest prospective buyer.
Hiro is not a fan of Tencent, but argues that the timing of this news–following the breakout success of BG3–might not be an accident. Right now, however, we’ll have to wait and see if there’s more to this story, or if it’s even worth a dime?
