It seems like we’re now getting acquisition news almost on a daily basis in the gaming industry, and this time it’s Take-Two acquiring the privately held French company Dynamixyz. Founded in 2010, Dynamixyz has developed a suite of leading-edge, proprietary motion capture, facial-analysis, and full 3D processing tools and technology that combines computer graphics, computer vision, and machine learning.

Gaspard Breton, CEO of Dynamixyz, added:
As you can see in the demo reel below, Dynamixyz technology was used in many games, movies, and TV series, such as Avengers: Endgame, Love, Death & Robots, NBA 2K, Red Dead Redemption 2, Ghost of Tsushima, the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes, and a recent Far Cry 6 trailer.
The team of 15+ professionals will operate as an independent division within Take-Two, lending its expertise exclusively to its publishing labels and game studios. Financial terms were not disclosed.
