EA Headquarters Being Raided By Protesters Over $55 Billion Saudi Arabia Buyout

In September 2025, Electronic Arts (EA) announced it would become a private company after agreeing to a $55 billion acquisition. The deal is being led by a group of investors including the Public Investment Fund (PIF), Affinity Partners, and Silver Lake. Affinity Partners, an investment firm previously funded by the Saudi Arabian government, is headed by Jared Kushner, son-in-law of former US President Donald Trump. The acquisition is currently under review by US regulators and other authorities.
