Gamebryo creator Emergent snapped up by anonymous party

Emergent Game Technologs has had a rough run recently. First, the developer of the Gamebryo engine puts its whole business up for sale in November. Then, just a few weeks ago, Bethesda reveals that it's breaking with tradition and not employing Gamebryo in the latest Elder Scrolls game, Skyrim.

This latest development? Well, it could go either way. The company has been purchased by an anonymous buyer, according to Develop. Whether or not this is good news for Emergent and its staff really depends on who this new buyer is and what their intentions are. Hopefully we'll have a clearer picture when the developer's identity is revealed "soon."
