Microsoft's acquisition of videogame company Activision Blizzard
won approval from U.K. competition authorities, clearing a path for
the companies to close the $75 billion deal after a lengthy
struggle with regulators.
The U.K.'s Competition and Markets Authority said Friday that
the proposed deal no longer poses a major threat to competition in
cloud gaming. The shift comes after Microsoft offered to
restructure the deal by forfeiting cloud-streaming rights for "Call
of Duty" and other popular Activision franchises in much of the
world.
