Microsoft announced last month that it intends to buy Activision Blizzard, one of the producers of Call of Duty, in a surprising move for a full $68.7 billion. While the deals are currently being worked on, the handover of Activision Blizzard to Microsoft will of course take some time. However, according to a new claim published by CNBC, Microsoft games division head Phil Spencer took advantage of the news of sexual harassment mentioning current Activision Blizzard head Bobby Kotick and embarked on an action to buy Activision Blizzard hastily.
The claim written in the published report reads as follows:
“Bobby Kotick has known about the alleged sexual assault cases for years. The filings are due to the companies’ negotiations, 68.7 “It shows it started in November, two months before it agreed to a billion-dollar deal. The timing was opportunistic for Microsoft. On November 20, Satya Nadella told Kotick she wanted to explore the acquisition.”
According to CNBC, this move is that Microsoft has acted opportunistically in this regard. While it is stated that Microsoft has benefited from the pressure of Activision Blizzard, it is also clear that it is a smart move for the business world. So, what do you think about this?
