Japanese regulator approves purchase of Activision

Japan’s regulator says Microsoft’s takeover of Activision doesn’t affect industry competition

Approval of the acquisition of Activision by Micros oft seems to be getting closer and closer. And it is that a new regulator has given the green light to the purchase. Now it’s at Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC)

. This approved the purchase as they believe it is not meant to affect competition in the sector in the country. Japan is the new country that approves this large transaction, after the CMA of the United Kingdom, as a precaution, also favored the purchase.

It seems that little by little all the regulators approve this historical transaction of the company, valued at 68.7 billion dollars. If the purchase is approved, franchises such as Call Of Duty, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, Overwatch or Spyro would become part of Xbox Game Studios

. Also, all of these upcoming and already released games would come to Xbox Game Pass.
