The amount is not small.
It is being the soap opera of the year with an abysmal difference, being so that it is being possible to see that Activision Blizzard purchase is on track to go to court because the FTC, the US antitrust regulator, has sued Microsoft because it is being seen how Bethesda’s game exclusivities would have broken an agreement prior to the purchase of the American giant.
Given this, it must be said that there is great discomfort in the American company because the FTC did not even want to discuss with Microsoft the conditions and possible solutions for this whole matter, while it seems that, unless an agreement is reached as that of the arrival of Call of Duty on PlayStation Plus, everything seems to indicate that it is coming a dispute of the fat.
Microsoft would have to pay Activision Blizzard more than 3 billion dollars in the event that the purchase does not take place
Given this, it must be said that Microsoft’s main concern is currently that the regulatory bodies knock down the purchasebeing so that this would mean a setback for the company not only internally and externally, but would also affect the economic sphere, since, if the operation fails, Microsoft would have to pay $3 billion to Activision Blizzard in what would clearly be a compensatory measure for the situation.
It should be noted that this has been proposed by Microsoft itself, thereby giving weight to the assurance that the transaction will be carried out on good terms. However, we will remain in doubt to see what ends up happening, especially due to the clear opposition of PlayStation, since this company is being the main obstacle for Microsoft in the acquisition due to its arguments that ensure that Call of Duty would become a Microsoft exclusive, just as it has happened with Starfield and Redfall. Time will tell what ends up happening.
