It’s almost a new dawn in videogames. After opposing Microsoft's $69 billion purchase of Activision Blizzard , Sony has signed an agreement over the latter's "Call of Duty" title. It will help the $2.6 trillion company appease regulatory holdouts, but Sony benefits too.
A U.S. judge late on Tuesday granted the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) request to temporarily block Microsoft Corp's acquisition of video game maker Activision Blizzard and set a hearing next week.
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission on Monday said it asked a court for a temporary order to prevent Microsoft Corp's $69 billion acquisition of video game maker Activision Blizzard from closing while the regulator continues reviewing the deal.
Japan's Nintendo Co Ltd on Tuesday said it sees a further slide in sales of its aging Switch console to 15 million units in the financial year to end-March 2024, a 17% annual drop that would mark a third consecutive year of decline.
Sony Group Corp on Friday said PlayStation 5 sales will jump by six million units this business year, but forecast its profit will slip from a record high as weaker financial services sales offsets gains from gaming, music and movies.
