Saber Interactive has received "significant investments." The exact amount has not been disclosed

Last night, another news story emerged, at least indirectly connected to the success of Warhammer 40000: Space Marine 2. Its developer, Saber Interactive, announced it has received “significant equity investment.”

The investors are two investment companies—London-based Aleph Capital, founded in 2013 by a former Goldman Sachs executive, and New York-based Crestview, which manages a $10 billion fund.

According to the official press release, the funds received from Aleph Capital and Crestview will enable Saber Interactive to repay its debt to Embracer Group following a recent buyout, as well as accelerate its growth.

Recall that in March of this year, it was reported that Beacon Interactive, controlled by one of Saber Interactive’s founders, Matthew Karch, agreed to purchase the studio from the Swedish holding company for $247 million.

There is no data on the investment amount. However, a couple of hours before the deal announcement, it became known that Beacon Interactive transferred $168.4 million to Embracer Group as part of the payment for Saber Interactive's assets.

Additionally, as part of the completed transaction, Jamie Rahamim, Managing Director and Head of Media at Aleph Capital, and Brian Cassidy, President and Head of Media at Crestview, joined the board of directors of the game studio.
