They're whining and saying if Xbox acquires Activision-Blizzard-King then they wouldn't be able to send dev kits to Activision because sneaky Microsoft will peak at their hardware and one-up them for the next gen.
Ignoring Minecraft/Mojang and Microsoft with MLB The Show and Bungie. Not to mention countless of ways it can be figured out, an NDA to the Activision developers themselves or simply releasing a PS5 version with PS6 enhancements rather than a native PS6 version considering every CoD is cross-gen anyway and that an issue like this would only apply to one CoD per gen, Lol.
It's ultimately Sony's choice, it's a desperate tactic and one the judge will likely throw out immediately.
Microsoft themselves have already done it before.
"To make sure that the game ran on the – at the time unreleased – Xbox Series X|S hardware, Microsoft sent it over to Sony, who until MLB The Show 21 released, had exclusive rights to the MLB series on PlayStation.
Sarah Bond, the head of game creator experience and ecosystem at Microsoft, told Axios: "It was a real, real sign of industry trust"."
Xbox had to trust Sony with Series X|S hardware for ‘MLB The Show 21’ (nme.com)
