Published Mar 24th, 2023 1:15PM EDT, the Competition and Markets Authority announced its provisional findings concerning console competition with Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard. The CMA says that it has reached a conclusion that the acquisition will not hurt console sales, potentially clearing one aspect of the acquisition for the companies.
