Tencent vows fresh video game curbs after media attack knocks shares By Brenda Goh and Samuel Shen Reuters SHANGHAI (Reuters) -China s Tencent Holdings Ltd said on Tuesday it would curb minors access to its flagship video game, hours after its shares were battered by a state media article that described online games as spiritual opium. Economic Information Daily cited Tencent s Honor of Kings in an article in which it said minors were addicted to online games and called for more curbs on the industry. The outlet is affiliated with China s biggest state-run news agency, Xinhua. China s largest social media and video game firm saw its stock tumble more than 10% in early trade, wiping almost $60 billion from its market capitalisation. The stock was on track to fall the most in a decade before trimming losses after the article vanished from the outlet s website and WeChat account.
