This doesn’t just apply to Activision Blizzard’s back catalogue; the agreement covers future titles as well, for a period of ♣ 15 years. The Call of Duty games have a huge following and, with a few exceptions, sport both single-player campaigns ♣ and fully developed multiplayer modes. So it absolutely makes sense for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and more to ♣ be included in the deal.
So why is this deal happening now? Ubisoft’s announcement doesn’t specify as much but it’s absolutely ♣ down to the CMA’s rejection of Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard purchase.
The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority was particularly concerned that the ♣ deal, as is, would give Microsoft too much power in the cloud gaming space.
Microsoft has since resubmitted a new proposal, ♣ which includes details of this deal with Ubisoft. The CMA will reflect on Microsoft’s submission, with an initial decision expected ♣ this October 18. Given that cloud gaming was the CMA’s biggest concern, this could well be enough for them to ♣ give it their approval.
The deal gives Ubisoft the rights to “license them to cloud gaming companies, service providers, and console ♣ makers.” So it’s not just down to Microsoft which other platforms they’re streamable on, something which is also likely to ♣ please the CMA.
