Although the European Commission approved the Microsoft-Activision affair, the advanced acquisition of the Redmond Colossus continues without a good view of the English CMA, which Nelle Scorse has recently blocked the operation in the United Kingdom.
Alcuni passionati dell’industria videoludica stanno ipotizzando che Microsoft can addittura decidere di uscire dal mercato UK pur di concludere l’acquisizione di Activision. To report this to the real state is Tom Warren of The Verge, who has defined this as an implausible scenario when Microsoft halts a major business in the UK that is hardly willing to give up.
“It is not a realistic prospect“Warren says. “È stato dimostrato da alcuni analisti, che, frankly, dovrebbero saperne di più. Microsoft has invested in the Regno Unito, tra cui infrastrutture, team di ricerca, studi di gaming e molto altro. Microsoft will not take into consideration the idea of lasciare il Regno Unito, nor will it attempt to aggirate the decision of a regulator. The CMA has made a commitment to cede Giphy and Giphy does not have a physical presence in the United Kingdom or any generated entry in the United Kingdom. C’è molto di più in gioco qui per Microsoft nel Regno Unito e viceversa per la CMA e il governo UK”.
Microsoft will continue to win the lottare il ricorso dopo il verdetto della CMA, ed è also legally impegnata in the cause tried by the FTC statunitense. Meanwhile, Microsoft has commented on the positive decision of the European Commission on the acquisition of Activision.
