But it has previously faced accusations of permitting a toxic and sexist work-place culture.<\/p>\n<p>In its ruling, the CMA said that it was concerned that if Microsoft bought Activision Blizzard it could harm rivals, &#8220;by refusing them access to Activision Blizzard games or providing access on much worse terms&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Sorcha O&#8217;Carroll, senior director of mergers at the CMA, said: &#8220;Microsoft could use its control over popular games like Call of Duty and World of Warcraft post-merger to harm rivals.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If our current concerns are not addressed, we plan to explore this deal in an in-depth Phase 2 investigation to reach a decision that works in the interests of UK gamers and businesses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This decision marks the end of the CMA&#8217;s initial investigation, Phase 1 as it is called. At Phase 2, the CMA appoints an independent panel to examine the deal in more depth.<\/p>\n<p>If after that CMA finds that a merger is problematic it will take steps to remedy its bad effects. That could mean stopping the merger, or allowing it to proceed but only if certain conditions are met.<\/p>\n<p><b>Mobile motive<\/b><\/p>\n<p>In response to the news Microsoft President Brad Smith said in a statement, &#8220;We&#8217;re ready to work with the CMA on next steps and address any of its concerns.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sony, as the industry leader, says it is worried about Call of Duty, but we&#8217;ve said we are committed to making the same game available on the same day on both Xbox and PlayStation. We want people to have more access to games, not less.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft maintains that its principal interest in the planned acquisition is Activision Blizzard&#8217;s expertise in mobile gaming.<\/p>\n<p>The firm&#8217;s head of gaming, Phil Spencer, told Bloomberg that &#8220;the biggest gaming platform on the planet is mobile phones&#8221; an area in which Microsoft lacked expertise.<\/p>\n<p>Currently Activision games can be played on both Xbox and rival PlayStation consoles, but the proposed takeover have led some to speculate that more games might become Xbox exclusives.<\/p>\n<p>This is something Mr Smith previously denied in an interview with CNBC, telling the network that &#8220;Great titles like Call of Duty&#8230; will continue to be available on the Sony PlayStation&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>He drew parallels with the firm&#8217;s 2014 acquisition of Minecraft where he said the company had invested in the game and brought it to more platforms.<\/p>\n<p>The point was reiterated in a blog post by Phil Spencer published on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft&#8217;s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard, an eye watering deal worth almost $70bn, shook the games industry.<\/p>\n<p>These two are both absolute giants, and their merger would make them a behemoth.<\/p>\n<p>The US tech giant, which owns Xbox, has aggressive gaming ambitions and deep pockets. It owns 23 games studios, including Minecraft maker Mojang, and Bethesda, creator of Fallout and SkyRim.<\/p>\n<p>Activision Blizzard&#8217;s greatest hits include Call of Duty, Overwatch, Skylander and Diablo.<\/p>\n<p>Sony &#8211; owner of the world&#8217;s best-selling games console, the PlayStation &#8211; has said publicly that it &#8220;expects&#8221; Microsoft to keep these enormous titles multi-platform.<\/p>\n<p>But Microsoft&#8217;s Phil Spencer says what he&#8217;s really interested in now is the mobile gaming market, and Activision also happens to own Candy Crush Saga &#8211; a simple, ten year old game which remains one of the most popular mobile games of all time.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s no wonder that the competition regulators are now putting this deal even further under the microscope. They need to be certain that a merger of this size won&#8217;t completely crush the market.<\/p>\n<p>Other countries, in addition to the UK, are carrying out their own anti-trust investigations &#8211; and last month Saudi Arabia became the first to approve the deal.<\/p>\n<p><b>Previous purchases<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Some have pointed to previous takeovers for evidence that the deal might lead to more new Activision Blizzard games becoming exclusive to Microsoft owned platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Microsoft successfully purchased the parent company of Fallout maker Bethesda Softworks for $7.5bn (\u00a36.46bn).<\/p>\n<p>At the time the Mr Spencer said, &#8220;some new titles in the future that will be exclusive to Xbox and PC players&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>And in a tweet Xbox&#8217;s Aaron Greenberg confirmed that Starfield, a game announced by Bethseda three years prior to the purchase in 2018, will not be released on PlayStation.<\/p>\n<p>Some independent game-makers have also been worried they might be marginalised in Microsoft&#8217;s Netflix-like game subscription service Game Pass if the deal went through, and the firm began favouring its own titles.<\/p>\n<p>But Sony, which makes PlayStation, has also been acquiring studios, purchasing game-maker Bungie for $3.7bn in June.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
