Following the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Microsoft has agreed to keep Call of Duty available on PlayStation, according to a tweet from Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer on Sunday.
Concerns regarding the acquisition's impact on competition could be alleviated further by a deal to keep Call of Duty on Playstation.
Talking on the understanding, Microsoft President Brad Smith said in a tweet, "Even after we cross the end goal for this arrangement's endorsement, we will stay zeroed in on guaranteeing that Vital mission at hand stays accessible on additional stages and for additional buyers than any time in recent memory."
The FTC had argued that because Microsoft would have an incentive to exclude rivals like Sony Group, the deal would hurt consumers regardless of whether they played video games on consoles or subscribed.
To address the FTC's interests, Microsoft had prior consented to permit "Extraordinary mission at hand" to rivals, including a 10-year contract with Nintendo, dependent upon the consolidation shutting.
