This would be true if it were a full takeover. But, actually it is just a small injection of cash. Which will greatly help the flagging Epic, which recently had to endure a relatively large layoff to stay the course. Disney is just making a cool metaverse with Epic that includes both their IPs; Star Wars / Avatar / Indiana Jones / etc and Fortnite, which is why they're providing this money. They were working on the technology together well before this investment. Epic isn't fully owned by Disney with this investment. Tencent has a much larger share.
