TL;DR Summary

Reuters reports that the EU anti-trust commission is set to approve Microsoft's $69 billion acquisition of Activision-Blizzard-King, makers of popular games such as Call of Duty and Candy Crush Saga, on May 15. However, the report is based on information from March and it is unclear if the sourcing on the deal passing and the date of the decision are separate or the same. The UK regulatory arm known as the CMA blocked the deal a few weeks ago over concerns that Microsoft could dominate the nascent cloud gaming market.
