The issue of the purchase of Activision Blizzard has already become totally topical, and it is that despite the fact that a year has passed since the announcement, it is still floundering, due to the fact that various government agencies are putting up a lot of resistance for this to be carried out officially. For this reason, there are many users who are waiting for this to be completed, and that is the large amount of news that comes out, as well as the debates that we can find on social networks, between users, and certain company representatives.
Now, it seems that we are closer to this purchase being carried out, and it is that one of the agencies that had caused problems, has taken a step forward in approving it. Next, we tell you all the details about this very positive news for Microsoftand to all Xbox fans.
One step further for approval
Specifically, what we have known is the provisional resolution of the CMA, the competent agency of the United Kingdom, which initially expressed various concerns about the possibility that Activision games, including some of the best games in history, pasen to be Xbox exclusiveswith the consequent damage to competition that it could do.
Now, in this provisional resolution they conclude that “the purchase of Activision Blizzard by Microsoft will not materially harm competition in the UK“, since they believe that the possibility of Microsoft making the Call of Duty franchise exclusive to Xbox is remote, something that helps a lot to avoid affecting the competition.
In this way, they take another step in the direction that many expect: that they approve this purchase once and for all. Of course, this does not mean that it will go ahead 100%, since there are still two important agencies to pronounce (the American and the European), in addition to the fact that this is a provisional resolution. Even so, thanks to you can see a ray of light at the end of the tunnel, and it is that, for various reasons, many users are waiting for the purchase to be completedfor one reason or another.
