Microsoft is restructuring its proposed Activision Blizzard deal to transfer cloud gaming rights for current and new Activision Blizzard games to Ubisoft. The transfer of rights is designed to appease regulators in the UK that are concerned about the impact Microsoft’s proposed $68.7 billion deal will have on cloud gaming competition. The restructured deal has triggered a new regulatory investigation in the UK that could last until October 18th.

Just cut the UK out. Let their government deal with the fallout of angry consumers. It’s their fault anyway. Microsoft in no way is required to do business in the UK, after all, it is not an UK corporation. Edit: I guess what I’m trying to say is: y’all can VPN like China has to, if you’re going to allow your government to delve deeper beyond the shit our Trump has. I won’t cry for you. Neither will many of those that have been screwed by the UK. You’ll still game on, through a VPN, like the peasants you’re ok with being forced to be once again.

What were you born tomorrow? A capitalist willingly giving up even a buck 25 would supprise me

I would surely skip a lot of Microsoft content if I had to deal with Ubisoft’s bullshit just to appease the UK. Your empire no longer never sets. And the world should no longer deal with your bullshit. I’ll see you in F1, stfu otherwise.
