The United States Department of Justice has raised concerns over two nongovernmental organization (NGO) members of the board of directors of Epic Games, potentially violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. The act prohibits individuals from serving on the board of directors of a competitor's company. Tencent, the parent company of Riot Games, holds a minority stake in Epic Games. As a result, the two nominees appointed by Tencent have resigned, and Tencent has agreed to modify its shareholder agreement with Epic Games, relinquishing its sole authority to appoint board members without the consent of the other shareholders.
The two new board members will be nominated by the Epic Games shareholder committee. Tencent has yet to comment on the matter.
