Microsoft continues to add points that may (or at least should) be decisive when regulators studying Redmond’s purchase of Activision-Blizzard come forward. As you may recall, a few weeks ago we learned that the company had signed separate deals with Nintendo and with NVIDIA, which ensure that its games (and Activision-Blizzard games, if the purchase is finally completed) will reach both the Nintendo Switch and the cloud GeForce Now gaming services.

Sony’s main argument for trying to turn regulators against the acquisition is that Microsoft may abuse its dominant position, limiting the arrival of Activision-Blizzard titles to its own ecosystem, i.e. on Xbox and Xbox Cloud. Those from Redmond, however, insisted to the point of exhaustion in their intention to ensure that, in particular, Call of Duty continued to regularly come to PlayStation, both within the period already agreed upon before the start of the purchase, and also afterwards.

In response, Sony claimed that it did not trust Microsoft and said that the company could withdraw from the contracts it was currently signing (including those offered by Sony) and that it could release versions of Call of Duty. on PlayStation. Two accusations that, without supporting evidence, and even more so given that Microsoft is a company closely watched by regulators, don’t seem particularly tenable.

In any case, and to strengthen our position, we found out in just 24 hours Microsoft has agreed with two other cloud gaming services to bring their games to those platforms for at least 10 years. Of course, these are lesser-known announcements than the previous ones, given that the main cloud gaming platforms are Microsoft-owned Xbox Cloud and GeForce Now, with which it has already signed a similar cooperation. But it’s further proof that Microsoft’s will is to maximize the reach of its and Activision-Blizzard games.

The first of them, with whom he signed a contract yesterday, is Boosteroida cloud gaming service originating from Ukraine that combines free games with additional games that you must own to play on the platform.

The second deal, signed today, has him as a teammate ubitus, a company that provides cloud gaming solutions to other gaming and telecommunications companies. Ubitus has an extensive game library that includes titles from Capcom, 2K, Atari, Konami, Sega and more.

With these new deals, Microsoft further expands the reach of its games and makes it harder for Sony and regulators to point in the direction Redmond intends to limit the reach of Activision-Blizzard titles if they ultimately succeed in completing the purchase. act.
