The fate of Microsoft's acquisition of Call of Duty developers and publisher Activision Blizzard is still under investigation by the UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which recently refused to accept Microsoft's argument over the acquisition deal.

Meanwhile, the Xbox boss spoke Phil Spencer With the Wall Street Journal editorial team on the fate of the acquisition of Activision Blizzard. which totaled US$ 70 billion. And he said:

It may come as a surprise, but I have no experience in how to do this kind of US$ 70 billion deal.

I know though. Right now we're very focused on getting approval from the key jurisdictions, so I spend a lot of time in Brussels and London and with the Federal Trade Commission here in the US.

I would say the discussions that have started so far have been very fair and honest.

We don't know the secret behind these silent statements from the Xbox president, but the indirect war of words we've witnessed between Sony and Microsoft over the alleged acquisition of this large-scale and last-place giant in the technology sector is justified.

This was pointed out by Spencer during his last interview with the magazine, where he went on to say:

On a major acquisition like this, and our leadership role in the technology industry. I think the discussions that are happening to have this scale are warranted, and I would appreciate if they were taking the time to evaluate it.

We at Microsoft are really focused on getting this deal approved by the markets, there is confidence in that. I was in London last week, I'm still in discussions with all the organizing committees and I'm confident that this deal will be successful.

At the end of this interview, he emphasized Spencer He hopes the Call of Duty shooter will remain on PlayStation and eventually come to Switch as well.
