The Microsoft deal might need to be reexamined by the EU

Microsoft has announced a restructuring of its proposed $68.7 billion cloud gaming deal with Activision Blizzard to transfer rights for current and new Activision Blizzard games to Ubisoft. UK regulators are conducting a new investigation into the deal, which may last until October 18th. The European Commission had cleared the deal in March but another notification could signal a further review.
