Report says US government will ‘likely’ challenge Microsoft buying Activision Blizzard

A new report by Politico (opens in new tab) says that the United States’ Federal Trade Commission is “likely” to go to an antitrust lawsuit to prevent Microsoft from executing its takeover of Activision Blizzard (opens in new tab). This is according to sources with insider knowledge of the FTC’s operations, who say the FTC’s investigation staff is “skeptical” of the companies’ arguments.

Likely does not mean guaranteed, however, and the FTC’s commissioners have neither met with lawyers for Microsoft and Activision nor voted on a formal complaint. The FTC declined to comment on Politico’s report.
