Microsoft's 'extreme' options to bypass acquisition block could include withdrawing Activision from the UK

Though in the UK for a talk about regulating AI, Smith also hopes to hold private discussions with the Chancellor, including, according to a spokesperson,"the proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard as we remain committed to finding creative and constructive ways to address remaining regulatory concerns".

Smith will reportedly discuss with Hunt Microsoft's strategy to counter the decision, including"extreme" options such as ignoring the block and pressing ahead with the deal regardless, or withdrawing Activision from the UK completely. As VGC posits, that doesn't necessarily mean that gamers wouldn't be able to access Activision products in the UK, but it could potentially affect Activision's UK staff in development and publishing.
