Microsoft and Sony Reach Agreement for Call of Duty on PlayStation After Activision Blizzard Acquisition

PlayStation 5

Seeing that the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals did not agree to approve the FTC’s suspension order against Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Sony, the only company in the industry that insisted on opposing the transaction, also gave up its resistance at the last moment.according to xbox boss Phil Spencer As tweeted not too long ago, Microsoft and Sony have reached a binding agreement to ensure Call of Duty will remain on the PlayStation platform even after the Activision Blizzard acquisition is officially completed.

However, in the official information released so far, there is no mention of the timeliness of Microsoft’s promise. When Microsoft announced similar cooperation with Nintendo and NVIDIA before, it stated that it was a ten-year contract. But in any case, after Sony accepted the reality, Microsoft basically cleared all obstacles to the acquisition. Now it’s up to them how much compromise they have to make in exchange for a license from the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (maybe a sale of the UK cloud gaming business?), and the FTC has an antitrust lawsuit in hand, but this can’t stop Microsoft from completing the acquisition .

renew:The term of the agreement is confirmed to be ten years.
