Microsoft's EU remedies favor cloud streaming rivals, excludes Sony and delays Activision Blizzard acquisition decision.

Microsoft's remedies to address EU antitrust concerns over its acquisition of Activision focus only on cloud gaming services, with no mention of rival Sony, suggesting the Commission no longer has concerns about competition in the console market. Microsoft has offered 10-year licensing deals for cloud gaming services, including Nvidia, Boosteroid, and Ubitus. The EU competition enforcer has given rivals and customers until the end of this week to provide feedback before it decides on the deal by May 22.
