The main thing for the day (July 5 – Tuesday)

1. Tencent is in talks with the National Welfare Fund of China and the Canadian Pension Fund about their participation in the acquisition of Supercell. Recall that at the end of June, it was announced the beginning of the process of acquiring 84% of the shares of the Finnish company by the Chinese Internet giant. Apparently, for Tencent, the amount of $8.6 billion turned out to be really big. The average annual return on investment in Supercell in the next four years may be 36%.

2. Iron Maiden: Legacy of the Beas t, a step-by-step battler in the universe of the rock band of the same name, was released on iOS and Android. Looks and sounds good. How it will show itself on the market is a big question. In Canada, where it was released in May, the game reached 111 positions in downloads among games and 130 places in the box office gaming top. The developer and publisher of the game was Roadhouse Interactive, which previously released Warhammer 40,000: Carnage.

3. Chinese Snail Games, apparently, decided to recall the classics and release its reading of the popular Dynasty Warriors series on mobile platforms. Adjusted for modern mobile realities, of course. In the novelty, which is called Kingdom Warriors, the player controls the hero, with whom his squad is carried around the map. The main task is to clear the game levels from numerous opponents.
