Lige nu møder Microsoft enorm modstand de fleste steder hvad angår deres planlagte køb af Activision Blizzard, og det er endnu svært at se om hvorvidt den egentlig vil gå igennem i sidste ende.
Men lige meget hvad, så kommer Xbox til at eksistere fremadrettet, selv hvis handlen skulle falde fra hinanden. Det forsikrer Xbox-chef Phil Spencer om i et interview med The Times:
"This is an important acquisition for us. It's not some linchpin to the long term — Xbox will exist if this deal doesn't go through. Competition is us trying to get stronger. I don't have great rationale for ... how better competition in consoles is somehow hurtful for consumers. Because to me, having us, Sony, and Nintendo doing well in the console market — all of us with strengths and uniqueness and content and capabilities — gives consumers more choice. I'd hate to see consoles go to where phones are where there are only two manufacturers. And, right now, we have three good competitors."
Tror du at handlen ender med at gå igennem?
