Another day, another report or story about Microsoft doing whatever is needed to make sure its purchase of Activision Blizzard<\/span> is allowed to happen. This time, it’s reported that Microsoft is willing to offer some concessions to regulators to get the deal approved, including a deal to keep Activision games on PlayStation consoles for the next decade.<\/p>\n

As Microsoft continues its determined attempts to consume Activision Blizzard via its massive $69 billion acquisition<\/span>it keeps running into pesky and regulators<\/span>. Many of these groups seem to have some issues with one of the biggest tech companies on the planet consuming one of the biggest and oldest video game publishers out there. So Microsoft has been forced to spend most of the last year submitting documents and responses to different courtrooms and regulatory committees<\/span> around the globe in an effort to see the merger through. And it seems Xbox might be willing to cut a deal with Sony over Call of Mulberry<\/em>y and other Activision games in an attempt to appease European union regulators.<\/p>\n

Earlier today, Reuters <\/em>reported<\/span> that sources familiar with the deal and companies involved claim that Microsoft will offer a series of \u201cconcessions\u201d to the EU’s European Commission, the main one being a 10-year licensing deal with Sony. No specific details were shared by Reuters<\/em>but considering how few games Activision publishes these days outside Call of Duty<\/em><\/span>it seems likely this would keep CoD <\/em>on PlayStation for 10 years, at least. this echoes statements from Xbox boss Phil Spencer<\/span> that he and the company have no plans to make Call of Duty<\/em> exclusive<\/span>. This would formalize that promise for the next decade.<\/p>\n

Kotaku<\/em> has reached out to Activision, Sony, and Microsoft about the reported licensing deal.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Microsoft could face a tough roadblock in its plan to buy up Activision as it was reported last week<\/span> that the Federal Trade Commission in the United States has plans to file an antitrust lawsuit in an effort to block the massive $69 billion tech deal from happening.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

G\/O Media may get a commission<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Previously, Activision told Kotaku <\/em>it’s \u201cabsurd\u201d to suggest the proposed deal between it and Microsoft will cause any anticompetitive effects.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis merger will benefit gamers and the US gaming industry, especially as we face increasingly stiff competition from abroad,\u201d said Activision. \u201cWe are committed to continuing to work cooperatively with regulators around the globe to allow the transaction to proceed, but won’t hesitate to fight to defend the transaction if required.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
