Tencent, a major player in the gaming industry, has recently reduced its board representation at Epic Games by half. This decision comes in the wake of an inquiry by the U.S. Department of Justice. Previously holding four seats, Tencent now has only two directors on Epic’s board. This adjustment reflects the ongoing scrutiny of foreign investments in American tech companies. The specifics of the DOJ’s investigation remain undisclosed, but it highlights the increasing regulatory attention on international tech partnerships. This development could influence how game developers and investors approach cross-border collaborations in the future.
