Microsoft to acquire Activision Blizzard https://news.microsoft.com/features/...-every-device/ With three billion people actively playing games today and fueled by a new generation steeped in the joys of interactive entertainment, gaming is now the largest and fastest-growing form of entertainment. Today, Microsoft Corp. announced plans to acquire Activision Blizzard Inc., a leader in game development and interactive entertainment content publisher. This acquisition will accelerate the growth in Microsoft’s gaming business across mobile, PC, console and cloud and will provide building blocks for the metaverse. When the transaction closes, Microsoft will become the world’s third-largest gaming company by revenue, behind Tencent and Sony. The planned acquisition includes iconic franchises from the Activision, Blizzard and King studios like “Warcraft,” “Diablo,” “Overwatch,” “Call of Duty” and “Candy Crush,” in addition to global eSports activities through Major League Gaming. The company has studios around the word with nearly 10,000 employees. “Gaming is the most dynamic and exciting category in entertainment across all platforms today and will play a key role in the development of metaverse platforms,” said Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO, Microsoft. “We’re investing deeply in world-class content, community and the cloud to usher in a new era of gaming that puts players and creators first and makes gaming safe, inclusive and accessible to all.” |
68 billion!!! Holly shit. |
you can get 1 month pc game pass for a dollar + add 1 month xbox game pass ultimate for another $1 which gives you 2 months of PC/XBOX/CLOUD/MOBILE gaming for $2 (make sure you buy it in that order. it will convert the 1 month PC pass into 2 months ultimate, which is also good for phone+pc+xbox) https://www.xbox.com/en-ca/games/sto...obxlptsz2wwm00 this is gonna be dope in the future when all the Blizzard/Activision games are on game pass. btw theres also a trick way to convert 12 months regular xbox live (up to 3 years) into 1-3 years of xbox game pass ultimate for a extra dollar if you havent done this promotion before or if ur subscription is expired. regular 1 month for game pass ultimate is $17 even cheaper if you buy the XBL year subscription key off a third party website or costco and then convert it. |

I did this - ended up w 36 months of gold and game pass for 120 bucks? Can’t remember. I just followed the instructions on redflagdeals to the letter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
I just use PC Gamepass, which is $5 per month. It is INSANE value |
Age of Starcraft 3 coming soon™ |
Didn't a lot of the talent at Blizzard already left? It isn't gonna be the same company anymore even though it got bought out. |
