I just checked the last 3 pages and I think that this hasn't been shared yet?

This is from today, an interim order from the CMA restricting MS and ABK from acquiring an interest in each other.

Except with the prior written consent of the CMA, Activision (and Microsoft) and all members of the Group of Interconnected Bodies Corporate to which it may belong must not:

1. (a.) acquire an Interest in Activision/Microsoft or any of its Subsidiaries;
2. (b.) acquire an Interest in an Enterprise holding an Interest in Microsoft or carrying on the business of Activision/Microsoft from time to time; or
3. (c.) hold an option to acquire an Interest referred to in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above.

Part of the process until there is a final determination.

____

Microsoft can't acquire a minority interest in Activision-Blizzard-King now. It was published today, coincidentally after news of the EC approving. Feels like CMA is making their "NO" very clear. They ain't going to give a shit what EC says.
