==========
Sony Online Entertainment Becomes Daybreak Game Company
Discussion in 'News and Announcements' started by Dexella, Feb 2, 2015.
Dear Players, Partners and Friends,
Today, we are pleased to announce that we have been acquired by Columbus Nova, an investment management firm well known for its success with its existing portfolio of technology, media and entertainment focused companies. This means that effective immediately SOE will operate as an independent game development studio where we will continue to focus on creating exceptional online games for players around the world, and now as a multi-platform gaming company. Yes, that means PlayStation and Xbox, mobile and more!
As part of this transition, SOE will now become Daybreak Game Company. This name embodies who we are as an organization, and is a nod to the passion and dedication of our employees and players. It is also representative of our vision to approach each new day as an opportunity to move gaming forward.
So what exactly does this mean for you? It will be business as usual and all SOE games will continue on their current path of development and operation. In fact, we expect to have even more resources available to us as a result of this acquisition. It also means new exciting developments for our existing IP and games as we can now fully embrace the multi-platform world we are living in.
Our games and players are the heart and soul of our organization, and we are committed to maintaining our portfolio of online games and pushing the limits of where we can take online gaming together.
Thank you for your continued support. See you in game!
The Team at Daybreak

人事变动。。。。
Dear Players, Partners & Friends,
Last week we announced that we were acquired and are now operating independently as
Daybreak Game Company. To better position our newly independent studio for future growth
opportunities and to deliver on our legacy of making top online games, we have had to make
some tough choices including realignment of resources.
Unfortunately, this realignment means adjusting staffing as well. We announced today that we
will eliminate positions in our San Diego and Austin studios. We deeply value our employees
and never take these decisions lightly so we’ve done our best to do what’s right for the people
affected. Although extremely difficult, these are necessary actions that will ultimately drive
improved results and help strengthen our company’s foundation for success. Many of us are
saying goodbye to close friends and colleagues who we’ve worked with over the years, and we
are grateful for the memories and all that they’ve contributed. They will be greatly missed, and
we wish them nothing but the best for the future.
These reductions will not affect the operation of our current games and as mentioned above, will
help better position our company for future success. As we move forward, we are committed to
delivering the best online games and working side-by-side with our players to drive the future of
our online games.
Thank you for your continued support,
The Daybreak Games Team

只看最后一句看来对了

关于此次收购的内幕消息尚不明朗，不过SOE公司已经更名为Daybreak游戏公司了。
　　SOE是早期MMO游戏热潮中兴起的一间游戏公司，最广为人知的产品是PC幻想游戏EverQuest。玩家需要按月付费来加入游戏，和别的在线玩家一起打败怪兽，收集宝藏。
　　但SOE公司最近几件无法和市场上的新生代游戏公司并步，包括英雄联盟的开发商RiotGames这样的新生代游戏厂商在市场份额上已经将SOE完全驱逐出了市场。
　　SOE的一系列基于星球大战的游戏和其他比较著名的厂牌表现并不是很好，即使他们适应英雄联盟带来的免费游戏潮流也没能挽救濒临破产的SOE。免费游戏一般通过游戏中一些花费很少的武器或其他装扮类物品来赚取收益，有很多玩家都不会在游戏中花费一分钱。
　　SOE公司没有取得过索尼的另一项产业——PSP掌机那样无与伦比的成功，PSP掌机业务将会继续保留为索尼所拥有。Wedbush Securities公司的分析师Michael说索尼一般是用音乐娱乐和游戏产业的投资来支持硬件产业的发展。
　　索尼依旧拥有很多掌机游戏，但SOE公司依旧会为它的收购者制作电脑游戏。
　　“线上游戏和索尼太不搭了，”Pachter说道。
　　和索尼的分道扬镳会给Daybreak带来新的机遇，周一Daybreak的总裁在推特上发文称Daybreak将会为Xbox One设计游戏
