The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), a UK based regulator, will cast its scrutinous eyes over Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard in the coming months.
This investigation will allow the company to decide whether or not Microsoft’s deal to purchase Activision Blizzard could be deemed anti-competitive.
“As with all merger reviews, this investigation will consider whether the deal could harm competition and lead to worse outcomes for consumers — for example, through higher prices, lower quality, or reduced choice,” the CMA said today (via GamesIndustry.biz).
