Microsoft is reportedly 'likely to make EU concessions' in Activision Blizzard deal soon, including a formal 10-year PlayStation agreement for Call of Duty
, Microsoft is likely to offer concessions to EU antitrust regulators in the coming weeks - a move which may help shorten the regulatory process. Citing a person"with direct knowledge" of the situation, Reuters says these remedies will"consist mainly" of a 10-year Call of Duty licensing deal to Sony.
However, even if EU regulators accept Microsoft's remedies, there are still considerable hurdles to clear before the deal is finalised. In total, 16 regulatory bodies around the world have launched investigations into Microsoft's proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard to assess its likely impact on competition, and onlyThe UK's Competition and Markets Authority is currently holding its own"phase 2" investigation, with a statutory deadline of March next year.
