Amazon EA acquisition report refuted by CNBC UPDATE: "This is not going to happen today." News by Tom Phillips Deputy Editor Updated on 26 Aug 2022 115 comments UPDATE 1.40pm UK: US network CNBC has shut down a report by USA Today that stated Amazon was set to make an imminent takeover bid for FIFA maker EA. Speaking live on air in the last few minutes, analyst and co-anchor David Faber said: "I've talked to some people who would actually know if there was something going on, and they say there's nothing going on. These are people who would be involved, who in fact were involved when our parent company was talking to Electronic Arts." A clip of the segment lies below: Amazon is not going to make a bid for Electronic Arts, sources tell CNBC's @DavidFaber.

Faber's update on today's report also included detail of a past bid for EA by NBCUniversal, which ultimately fell through. Earlier today, an EA spokesperson told Eurogamer the company did not comment "on rumors and speculation relating to M&A [mergers and acquisitions]".
