Microsoft wins FTC fight to buy Activision Blizzard

From the article, quoting Judge Corley:
… the Court finds the FTC has not shown a likelihood it will prevail on its claim this particular vertical merger in this specific industry may substantially lessen competition. To the contrary, the record evidence points to more consumer access to Call of Duty and other Activision content. The motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DENIED.
I think it may be from PC gamers who want PC ports day 1, so would rather if a company is bought out it be one that has made pushes for simultaneous pc and console day 1 releases than having to buy another hardware. But for gamers who are fine with playing on all system it does definitely make sense why this buy out is bad news, since competition is much more preferable.
