\tGamer communication service Discord reportedly ended talks with Microsoft and other companies over a potential sale, instead plotting to explore other paths as a standalone company.<\/p>\n

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported the US-based company is mulling an IPO instead of a sale, citing confidence in its performance as a factor in the decision to end sale talks.<\/p>\n

Discord had been linked with Amazon, Epic Games and, later, Microsoft [1] in relation to talks about a sale.<\/p>\n

WSJ reported takeover talks with Microsoft might resurface given the software giant’s pursuit of businesses to bolster its presence in specfic industries: last week it launched a $19.7 billion move for AI speech recognition company Nuance Communications [2], and it was previously said to be interested in acquiring the US assets [3] of social media service TikTok.<\/p>\n

Discord previously revealed it gained 40 million monthly active users (MAUs) in H2 2020, taking its total to 140 million by end-December, compared with a reported 70 million at end 2019.<\/p>\n
