NBCUniversal is reportedly considering entering the video game industry following its planned spinoff from Comcast into an independent publicly-traded company. Newly-appointed CEO Michael Cavanagh signaled interest in exploring adjacent businesses post-separation. The spinoff, expected to complete in about a year, will position NBCUniversal as a standalone global media and entertainment company encompassing Universal studios, NBC, Peacock, Sky, and a growing theme parks division. Comcast has prior gaming-adjacent experience through its Nintendo and Illumination partnership on the Super Mario Bros. film franchise.
