“《使命召喚》，爲了1.5億新玩家。”微軟在英國兩家著名的報紙《金融時報》和《每日郵報》發表新聞，試圖向競爭與市場管理局(CMA)(即查爾斯王國的反壟斷機構)施加壓力。

廣告中清楚地表達:“這是我們讓動視暴雪和Xbox合併的承諾之一。在更多平臺上爲更多玩家提供更多遊戲。”

即使是選擇的廣告圖片，他們的目的也很明確。基本上，它們都是遊戲設備，屏幕上顯示着《使命召喚》系列的圖像:電視、平板電腦、筆記本電腦、智能手機和便攜式遊戲機。中間是Xbox無線控制器，用來閉合這一圈。

簡而言之，微軟正在盡一切努力獲得CMA的同意，以便能夠完成交易，甚至尋求公衆輿論的支持。

就在今天，有消息稱，如果微軟收購動視暴雪，索尼擔心自己的平臺上出現《使命召喚》的殘缺版本。

“Call of Duty. For 150 million more players.” This is the title of a advertising page That Microsoft bought two prestigious UK newspapers, the Financial Times and the Daily Mail, in an attempt to increase pressure on the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), i.e. the antitrust body of Charles’ kingdom, in an attempt to get his attempted takeover of Activision Blizzard. L’objective of the ad is not implied, but is spelled out clearly in the ad: “This is one of our pledges to approve the merger between Activision Blizzard and Xbox. More games for more players on more platforms.” Even the selected images for advertising, probably made in agreement with Activision Blizzard (since it uses its material) are quite clear in their purpose. Basically they are all gaming devices, or also used to play, with images of the Call of Duty series on the display: a television, a tablet, a laptop, a smartphone and a portable console. In the middle is the Xbox wireless controller to close the circle. Microsoft’s advertising page in UK newspapers In short, Microsoft is doing everything to obtain the consent of the CMA, so as to be able to conclude the transaction, even seeking support from public opinion, putting pen to paper that one of the fears expressed by the antitrust body, i.e. the foreclosure of the Call of Duty from platforms other than Xbox, is unfounded. Just today it emerged that Sony fears seeing crippled versions of Call of Duty on its platforms, should Microsoft acquire Activision Blizzard.
