Electronic Arts is saying ”game over” to Wall Street in the largest leveraged buyout of all time. The videogame maker said Monday that it would go private in a $55 billion megadeal with a group of investors including Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, private-equity firm Silver Lake and Jared Kushner’s investment firm Affinity Partners. EA publishes The Sims, football game Madden NFL and FC, the soccer videogame formerly known as FIFA.
