Microsoft's attempts to buy up Activision-Blizzard continues unabated, with an epic court case against the FTC in the United States.
Microsoft is trying to pick up the makers of Call of Duty, Diablo, World of Warcraft, and Candy Crush for an astronomical $69 billion dollars. The deal has been under some intense regulatory pressure across the world, but nowhere has been as skeptical of the deal as the United States, whose Federal Trade Commission has applied for a federal injunction to stop the deal from going ahead. We should find out in the coming weeks whether or not the FTC was successful with its efforts, but the proceeding court case has led to a tranche of documents being shared publicly for the first time, exposing the inner workings of Xbox.
