The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is calling on the public to share its views regarding Microsoft’s proposed $69bn USD acquisition of Activision Blizzard.
This is the next in the CMA’s ongoing investigation into the acquisition, which entered Phase 2 at the start of September when the regulator decided the deal required more in-depth scrutiny.
Last week, as part of Phase 2, the CMA released its Issues Statement, detailing the focus of the inquiry’s second stage and setting out the potential areas of concern – known as “theories of harm” – it’s investigating. These relate to the acquisition’s impact on multi-game subscription services, the future of cloud gaming, and the availability of Activision content on rival platforms.
