Xbox will not talk about Activision until the purchase is concreted

The purchase of Activision Blizzard has dominated video game talks in the last week. Although it seems that nobody can stop talking about this topic, it has recently been released that Microsoft and Xbox will not touch this point until the acquisition of this company comes to an end , something that is expected to be concrete until the 2023.

During the latest Xbox podcast, Larry HRB, better known as Major Nelson, made a series of comments about this acquisition, but it made it clear that it is not yet time to talk about the future of Activision Blizzard , since The purchase still needs to be approved. This was what he commented:

Now, I'm sure they're tuning this and the comments are going to [be] about x, and z... the reality is that this will take a while. And there is a lot of work to do before it is finalized, and that is all we can say at this time. As you can imagine, there are lawyers, there are regulators and there is a lot of work to do before this is done... then we can talk more.

We have to wait until the ink is dry, it's like when you point out a house, and you say 'Oh, we want to buy that house, and we are not owned yet' and although we want to move, we can not move yet, not yet... once that happens And the deal is closed, I'm sure we'll have a lot of talking about... I hope everyone in Activision and Blizzard join the Xbox team.

While it is true that the purchase of Activision Blizzard is a security, the legal process that implies an acquisition of this type, it takes a long time. In this way, is talked about a process that can lead from 12 to 18 months . Now we can only wait, and wait until Xbox is ready to talk about concrete plans.

On related topics, Raven Software strike has come to an end. In the same way, experts foresee that EA will be the following company to be sold.

Editor's note:

This is a pretty reasonable position. HRB explains it in a clear way, there is no need to talk about something that has not yet been specified. However, once this process comes to an end, it is very sure that they themselves are the first to reveal the plans that Xbox and Activision Blizzard will have on the door.
