Yesterday's announcement that epic Games bought ownership of the Cary Towne Center as the company's new operations center. Found an agreement with Turnbridge Equities e Denali Properties, the well-known US video game development house has thus acquired the immense land of more than 91 thousand m². The facility, located in North Carolina, will therefore be Epic Games' new global headquarters, which will then move from its current Crossroads Boulevards headquarters by 2024. Meanwhile, the company is making deals directly with the city of Cary on how the property can be used for the town's community.
Harold Weinbrecht, mayor of Cary, expressed words of pride regarding the decision made by Epic Games regarding its move to their US town. The same press release, published on the official website of the videogame company, reports the words of the mayor regarding this choice:
We are extremely proud that Epic has chosen to name Cary as the home for its new global headquarters and we greatly appreciate the company's recognition of Cary's existing assets, as well as the area's unlimited potential for their growing business. We look forward to continuing to work closely and collaboratively with the Epic team as they conceptualize their new campus and are honored to partner with them on this exciting new development.
Also Jason Davis, CEO of Turnbridge Equities, the real estate company that Epic Games relied on for this sale, expressed his opinion on the choice made by the developer, saying the following:
Epic shares our vision to transform the Cary Towne Center into a vibrant community space. This sale is further confirmation of our value-oriented investment strategy. The property could not be placed in better hands. After years of changing development plans for the Center, we are thrilled that the space will be used to its full potential and transformed into something the city and community of Cary can be proud of.
Epic Games' plans for its future seem well targeted and lead to an expansion of its development team for future years, with the aim of growing the company in the long term. Fortnite, the flagship title of the company, does not stop and continues to dominate the charts and to always have new improvements and interesting updates. Who knows what Epic Games may be able to do with a greater number of developers at work, we still don't have some time left to find out.
