The UK's Block of Microsoft's Activision Merger Raises Questions.
TL;DR
Nvidia has expressed support for Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard, saying cloud gaming providers would benefit from an even deeper catalog of games. The UK's Competition & Markets Authority is blocking the sale primarily over concerns about the cloud gaming market. Microsoft and Activision Blizzard are preparing an appeal, while the EU is set to hand down a decision by May 22 and the FTC's first evidentiary hearing is set for August 2023 in the US.
