Corsair to go all in on sim racing after it announces plans to acquire Fanatec

Corsair has entered into negotiations to acquire Endor AG, the owners of the sim racing specialist Fanatec. The proposed deal will provide a welcome cash injection into Endor AG, which has been struggling under the weight of a €70 million debt.

Should the deal come to fruition, it will mark a major play by Corsair into the world of sim racing. Fanatec has a loyal following, and it's one of the premier brands in the sim racing market, with a range of mid-to high-end direct drive bases, wheels, pedals, shifters and cockpits.
