Jared Kushner and Saudi Arabia Acquire Electronic Arts and Dice Studio

Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, together with an investment vehicle led by former U.S. President Donald Trump’s son‑in‑law Jared Kushner, has taken control of video‑game giant Electronic Arts and the Swedish developer Dice. The deal gives the Saudi state a stake in a Swedish studio that creates globally popular titles, raising concerns about foreign state influence over the gaming industry. The acquisition follows a period of increasing foreign investment in Sweden’s tech sector.

Industry observers note that the transaction could reshape ownership structures in the video‑game market and may affect future development and publishing decisions for EA’s and Dice’s franchises.
