Sony is jumping into the video-game-making M&A fury.
"Bungie’s successful track record in multi-format publishing and live game services will assist us in realizing our ambitions to take PlayStation beyond the console and increase our potential audience," said Jim Ryan, president of Sony Interactive, in a deal blog post.
The $3.6 billion deal comes after Microsoft shelled out $69 billion for Activision earlier this month.
