Take-Two selling Private Division label to unnamed buyer


The indie label under Take-Two is up for sale as the parent company doubles down on triple-A titles like Grand Theft Auto.

In today’s Take-Two quarterly earnings, the publisher behind games like Bioshock and Grand Theft Auto announced it has sold off its Private Division label to an unnamed buyer. Earlier this year, Take Two laid off the vast majority of the Private Division staff, indicating that things were looking dire for the indie publishing label. It has not been said by Take-Two whether or not this sale includes Private Division’s existing contracts and partnerships, but considering one partner is Game Freak(the creators and developers of Pokémon), presumably the buyer would want all that it entails.
