Microsoft Corp. has reached a settlement in a lawsuit brought by a group of gamers seeking to block its acquisition of video game publisher Activision Blizzard for $69 billion. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed, but both parties have agreed to dismiss the lawsuit and cover their own costs and fees, as indicated in a court filing dated Monday.
The lawsuit was initiated in 2022 in a U.S. federal court in San Francisco on behalf of 10 individual gamers who are fans of Activision Blizzard’s popular titles, including Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, and Diablo.
