Chinese megacorp NetEase has acquired Skybox Labs, a Canadian studio that’s worked on notable titles like Halo Infinite, Minecraft, and Fallout 76.
Founded in 2011, SkyBox Labs – which is based in Burnaby and Victoria, Canada – has co-developed with partners like Xbox Game Studios, EA, and Wizards of the Coast. The company says it will continue to “operate independently”, “working closely with existing and new partners to pursue creative opportunities”.
“Over the last decade, we’ve had the pleasure to work on beloved games such as Halo Infinite, Minecraft, and Fallout 76,” said co-founder Shyang Kong.
