Phil's staying the course.
Xbox's Phil Spencer is staying the course: Microsoft's long-delayed acquisition of Activision Blizzard will happen, he said on Sunday.
"We're out there to find solutions with the regulators that have questions, and that's what we're actively doing," said Spencer, following up that regulators had problems in many different areas, but that Microsoft had spent significant time on the deal."We're trying to get to solutions. We did that with the European Commission. I'm confident we'll find solutions in the other areas as well. It's taking time, it's taking focus, but I'm confident.
Phil Spencer is not the only person who thinks there's a chance. Just this week, a gaming industry analyst with prominent investment bank Jeffries noted that Microsoft does have a real chance of closing the acquisition deal. As reported by, Jefferies analyst Andrew Uerkwitz thinks there's a"more than zero" but"less than half" chance the acquisition gets approved.
