The Controversy Surrounding Starfield's Exclusivity

According to documents made public as part of the FTC's injunction against Microsoft's planned acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Starfield and Redfall were originally planned to release on PlayStation 5 prior to Microsoft's acquisition of ZeniMax. This contradicts Microsoft's previous vagueness about exclusivity. The FTC is using Microsoft's handling of ZeniMax and exclusivity as evidence against the acquisition of Activision Blizzard. The case will go to trial this week, and a preliminary injunction would likely delay the merger.
