Things is even CMA preliminary decision to open an in depth investigation have been completely destroyed by the Nintendo deals and 10 years offering to Sony. So even if a phase 2 with the CMA mostly result in a block in a normal scenario, I believe MS have a great shot at being one of the few that succeed as the CMA will need to find others and better argument than it found in Phase 1 to block this deal.

Out of curiosity, what was the CMA's arguments when they finished phase 1?
