Epic Games announced yesterday that it reached an agreement with Turnbridge Equities and Denali Properties to acquire ownership of the Cary Towne Center. The massive area (980,000-square-foot and 87-acre) and its facilities will be converted into the new Epic Games campus ‘HQ’, with the goal to start work this year and eventually move here from their current location at Crossroads Boulevards by 2024. Epic is also apparently already talking with the Town of Cary (North Carolina) to explore ways this property might be used by the local community, too.
Cary, NC Mayor Harold Weinbrecht said:
Jason Davis, Managing Director at Turnbridge Equities, added:
This acquisition could be a hint that Epic Games is planning to expand its workforce over the next few years, perhaps in order to work on new game projects while the Golden Goose that is Fortnite continues to be updated and improved. After all, the press release does mention the new campus will ‘accommodate the company’s long-term growth’.
