Microsoft will not consider a version of its proposed $68.7bn Activision Blizzard buyout where it cannot also get its hands on Call of Duty, company president Brad Smith has said.
The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority regulator previously suggested Activision sell off Call of Duty first, in order to make Microsoft’s buyout more palatable amidst anti-competition concerns.
Speaking yesterday in Brussels at a press briefing attended by Eurogamer, Smith said Microsoft didn’t “see a viable path” to a deal where Call of Duty was owned by someone else.
