Microsoft is restructuring its proposed Activision Blizzard deal to transfer cloud gaming rights for current and new Activision Blizzard games to Ubisoft. The transfer of rights is designed to appease regulators in the UK that are concerned about the impact Microsoft’s proposed $68.7 billion deal will have on cloud gaming competition. The restructured deal has triggered a new regulatory investigation in the UK that could last until October 18th.
It would be really funny if they transfer the rights to Ubisoft, pass the regulators, and then buy Ubisoft 😀
I mean, the regulators would just then stop that acquisition.
I know, that wasn’t a realistic scenario, just an ironic one.
