The UK regulator the CMA has requested additional comments around Microsoft's bid to buy Activision Blizzard.
The CMA admits this is "not a usual part of the process" and it follows Microsoft's bid to change the regulator's mind over blocking the deal.
The CMA had decided to prevent the deal back in April due to concerns over the potential dominance of Microsoft in the nascent cloud gaming/streaming space. However, ahead of the CMA's final order, Microsoft has submitted a 34-page report detailing changes of circumstance.
