FaZe Clan’s esports operations are fully owned by GameSquare Holdings Inc. as of 2025, making GameSquare the controlling owner of the FaZe Clan brand and its competitive teams.

Who owns FaZe Clan now?

  • GameSquare acquired FaZe Clan’s parent company, FaZe Holdings, in an all‑stock deal announced in 2023 and completed in 2024, adding FaZe to its esports portfolio.
  • After various restructurings, GameSquare now retains 100% ownership of the FaZe esports assets (often referred to as FaZe Esports or FaZe Clan, Inc.).
  • In late 2025 coverage, GameSquare is repeatedly described as the “sole owner” of FaZe Clan following buybacks and divestitures involving founders and FaZe Media.

FaZe Media vs FaZe Esports

  • In 2024, FaZe’s business was split into two pieces: an esports company (FaZe Esports) and a creator‑led media company (FaZe Media).
  • FaZe Media took on outside investment, including a large stake from DraftKings co‑founder Matt Kalish, while GameSquare continued to own all of the esports competition assets.
  • In March 2025, GameSquare divested its remaining 25.5% stake in FaZe Media, returning that media arm more to founder‑side control, but it kept full ownership of the FaZe esports side.

Founders and control (not majority owners)

  • FaZe was originally founded by Richard “FaZe Banks” Bengtson, Thomas “Temperrr” Oliveira, and Yousef “FaZe Apex” Abdelfattah over a decade ago.
  • During the GameSquare era, Banks served as CEO of FaZe Media, Temperrr as president, and Apex as COO, giving them significant creative and operational control for a period.
  • Coverage through mid‑ to late‑2025 notes that, despite their leadership roles and temporary equity positions, ultimate corporate ownership of FaZe Clan’s esports assets rests with GameSquare.

Recent drama and exits

  • In 2025, a wave of well‑known FaZe creators publicly announced they were leaving the org, which sparked renewed debate around “who really owns FaZe Clan.”
  • Reporting attributes much of the internal tension to disputes over money and ownership stakes between creators and GameSquare.
  • After founder Banks’ company sold its stake and he later stepped down as CEO, articles describe GameSquare as having clear, consolidated control while the “classic” FaZe identity is seen by many fans as fading.

Simple takeaway

  • The short answer to “who owns FaZe Clan” today is: GameSquare Holdings Inc. owns FaZe Clan’s esports organization and brand rights on the corporate side.
  • Founders and former leaders still matter to the story and culture, but they no longer appear to be the majority owners of the FaZe Clan esports entity itself.
