It would be the next billion-dollar deal in the games industry, but without any real consolidation. This is because the forthcoming takeover of Keywords Studios is not being bought by another games company, but by the Swedish investment company EQT. EQT is not buying Keywords Studios directly, but through a newly formed subsidiary called Houting UK.
