Microsoft has accused the UK competition regulator of 'adopting Sony’s complaints without appropriate level of review' over its proposed Activision Blizzard deal.
“In short, Sony is not vulnerable to a hypothetical foreclosure strategy, and the Referral Decision incorrectly relies on self-serving statements by Sony which significantly exaggerate the importance of Call of Duty to it and neglect to account for Sony’s clear ability to competitively respond,” it said.
Microsoft reiterated its intention to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation consoles, claiming that taking the series away from the rival console would “tarnish both the Call of Duty and Xbox brands”. The company also argued that bringing Activision Blizzard games to Game Pass would offer players more choice.
