Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard may go ahead in the United States, as Judge Corley sees no danger of harming competition.

      Call of Duty sells millions of copies each release. AB will have to go under before they shelf it.

      But the issue is exactly that. Come the PS6, there will be no more COD games for non Xbox systems (MS carefully worded their announcement to say that they’d keep releasing COD for the PS5 and made no mention of other consoles). This could severely harm the future sales of Sony due to lessened competition. And while idgaf about the profits of these massive companies, having less competition is worse overall for everyone involved.
