Nearly two years after Microsoft announced its bid to purchase Activision Blizzard and bring it under its fold, the Xbox owner finally received the green
light from the UK's Competition and Markets Authority and was able to finalise its US$69 billion takeover of the studio that owns Diablo and the Call of Duty IPs.
The CMA remained the last long-standing hurdle to Microsoft, long after its deal to acquire the video game studio and developer received the blessings from the EU and US regulators. The decision by the UK body comes as something as a surprise to the gaming world too; it had long been the most vocal opponent against the buyout, saying that the deal would give the software company an unfair advantage over other industry players, such as Sony PlayStation.
