HOLY

We have previously reported, Microsoft has bought the next big video game studio — this time Activision Blizzard. According to the Activision scandals of the last few months, it is not surprising that Microsoft has now taken the opportunity to take over.

For Xbox players, this is of course a good news: the Xbox team has confirmed in the original message to take over that so many games of Activision Blizzard should be taken as possible in the Xbox Game Pass and the PC Games Pass. However, the question remains what happens with the games on the PlayStation consoles.
