Electronic Arts has acquired Facebook gamesmaker Playfish for up to $400 Million.
Playfish Ltd. is a British based developer of free to play casual social games primarily popular on the likes of Facebook and MySpace, Bebo and the iPhone, among others.
The deal will bring a smile to many a game developer who have rested their laurels on social gaming becoming a mature business. With this, we’re likely to see either IPO’s or acquisitions in the not so distant future.
