Been thinking lately, I've read recently that when Microsoft/Activision renegotiate the end date, the breakup fee and the merger price will increase so with that being said, I think there is a very strong chance that will be when the merger will end. Activision-Blizzard is holding steady even with everyone accepting the deal is dead so Microsoft will have to fork up a lot more for not only the breakup fee but the merger price.

I think Activision-Blizzard has a much stronger negotiating position now compared to when Microsoft tried to acquire them and so they'll demand a lot more and it may be too much for Microsoft, not in the sense of being able to but in the sense of wanting to, and I think Activision-Blizzard will see their share price holding steady and won't be in a rush to sell again so they are at an advantage in negotiations once again.

Saying they'll fight it now is all well and good but we'll see when the money comes out how they really feel.
