Microsoft Reportedly in Talks to
Acquire Messaging Platform Discord.
According to Bloomberg News,
Discord has been exploring a sale
and has reached out to potential buyers.
People familiar with the reported talks
say that Microsoft is set to purchase
the company for more than $10 billion.
VentureBeat also reported that the messaging
platform is already in final talks with a buyer.
One source close to the matter told
Bloomberg News that Discord is
more likely to go public than to sell.
The COVID-19 pandemic has boosted the
appeal of gaming companies, as many people
turned to video games during quarantine.
