Sony Pictures Entertainment, the unit directly concerned, expects to gain half of the purchase price in cash and the remaining half in Scopely shares. Sony executives reportedly judged that GSN Games provided too few synergetic benefits to other Sony businesses to be worth holding on to. GSN Games is known for its free-to-play mobile and online game titles, including Solitaire TriPeaks, Bingo Bash, and Wheel of Fortune Slots. Akihabara News (Tokyo) - Sony recently announced that GSN Games, a division of its wholly-owned Game Show Network subsidiary, will be sold to Scopely, a California-based mobile gaming firm, for US$1 billion.
