There is no doubt that Microsoft’s proposed acquisition to integrate Activision Blizzard into its studios is by far the largest such takeover and transaction the gaming industry has ever seen. This is why it is closely watched by regulatory bodies around the world. The UK Competition and Markets Authority and the European Commission of the EU are investigating the deal. While by your side it seems likely that the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will file an antitrust lawsuit to block the proposed deal.
If that were to happen, Microsoft might be willing to take legal action to make sure it happens.. A report of Bloomberg The newly released report indicates that the FTC is finalizing its investigation and is expected to make a recommendation to FTC Commissioners soon. If it decides to take legal action to block the deal, it will be reported that Microsoft could be sued to launch its objections and provide material for its defense.. In turn, if that were to happen, approval of the deal would likely be delayed beyond Microsoft’s original expectations. The date has been set for June 30, 2023, but it already seems somewhat adjusted as the file evolves.
Recently, Lulu Cheng Meservey Activision Blizzard said the company “will not hesitate to fight to defend the transaction if necessary.” At the beginning of the year, the boss of Xbox, Phil Spencersaid the review of the proposed acquisition was “fair and justified.”
From Xbox Area we hope that everything will come to fruition and enjoy the great Activision Blizzard games on Game Pass.
