El ex CEO de Activision Blizzard, Bobby Kotick, ha alegado que una demanda de 2022 contra la adquisición de la compañía por parte de Microsoft, valorada en 67.800 millones de dólares, fue presentada para beneficiar a la competidora Embracer Group.

Kotick hizo esta afirmación en una respuesta presentada en diciembre a una demanda interpuesta por el fondo de pensiones sueco Sjunde AP-Fonden ante el Tribunal de Cancillería de Delaware. El fondo alegó que la venta se aceleró para evitar las acusaciones de conducta sexual inapropiada contra Kotick. Este último replicó que la acción tenía como objetivo ayudar a Embracer a expandirse en California a expensas de Activision, dificultando la contratación de talento y las fusiones para la empresa.
