Microsoft Signals It’s Unlikely To Divest Call of DutyTo Help Activision Blizzard Deal Pull Through
Microsoft attended a closed hearing to address the European Union’s concerns over the Activision Blizzard deal. Industry peers, such as Sony and other games and tech companies, were also present. Though media could not attend the court session, Microsoft held a press conference afterwards.
Microsoft president Brad Smith couldn’t discuss what was said at the closed hearing, according to live coverage by Eurogamer and GameIndustry.biz. Smith instead took the stage to signal Microsoft’s determination and optimism about working with regulators to push the deal forward. As for indications of what concessions Microsoft might make to convince regulatory bodies to let the Activision Blizzard deal through, dropping Call of Duty does not look like it’s on Microsoft’s table.
When asked about the possibility of divesting from Call of Duty, Smith commented, “We don’t think it’s feasible or realistic to think one game or one slice can be carved out from the rest.” Dropping the Activision unit or Call of Duty was proposed in the UK regulator’s provisional report as one of the potential actions Microsoft could take to get the deal approved.
