Unprompted, Microsoft PR sends this: "Unlike Sony, our most senior executives will testify in person to answer any questions about our business strategy. This deal means more choice for gamers, a fact that only becomes clearer the more you look at the case."

Witness list for the preliminary injunction hearings for FTC vs Microsoft / Activision is a who's who of gaming: Microsoft's Satya Nadella, Phil Spencer, Activision's Bobby Kotick, Bethesda's Pete Hines, PlayStation's Jim Ryan, Nvidia and Nintendo execs, and more

Pete Hines is also a witness along with some Nintendo execs.
Fuck this is going to be good.
FTC makes clear that one of the things it wants to ask these folks about is the Xbox-Bethesda deal (only FTC i calling Hines, for example), as they've maintained that Microsoft's approach with Bethesda is what's going to happen with all Activision Blizzard games.
