Earlier this year we attended a press event for 1C Company, the largest Russian developer/publisher. Today 1C announced that their company would become even larger as they have acquired one of their rivals, Buka. Specifc financial terms were not disclosed but the press release states, " . . . .managers of both enterprises will try to make the best use of the synergy in their publishing, distribution and marketing activities."

Buka has published a number of Western games in Russia, including titles from Ubisoft, Codemasters, THQ, Valve and others. It also publishes and develops its own games such as the Hard Truck series of titles and the upcoming action-adventure game Collapse.
