Bytedance has confirmed to sell Moonton, popularly known for its MOBA title Mobile Legends: Bang Bang to Savvy Games Group, which is owned by the government-funded Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund, for USD 6 billion.

The deal was first reported by Reuters on March 20, 2026 as ByteDance started restructuring its gaming division, Nuverse and scaled back its efforts on the video game industry to instead focus on developing AI. The selling of Moonton Technology represents a further step of this restructuring.

Savvy Games’ CEO, Brian Ward, said the acquisition would help the company develop its mobile games division and expand its Esports vision on a wider scale.

Savvy Games’s acquisition of Moonton means that Mobile Legends may reenter the North American market as originally planned. It also means that its Esports events can expand to a much wider global audience.

The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC) warn Roblox of possible restrictions should they not improve their security in protecting minors and cooperating with local law enforcement.

Roblox, a popular creative gaming platform, has over 400 million users globally, the majority being minors. It has faced scrutiny last year for not addressing child safety concerns. The situation worsened when popular pedophile hunter and YouTuber Schlep, was banned on the platform. Afterwards, YouTubers, including Schlep and Law By Mike, sued the company.

The crackdown on Roblox is part of a directive ordered by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr on protecting minors online. DICT also mentioned that no online platform is above the law when it comes to child safety.

Currently, Roblox is on notice by the DICT and CICC. It is also currently unknown whether any enforcement action, such as restrictions or suspensions, would be done directly by either or both agencies, or through a government mandate.
