Ubitus is best known for working with many publishers on cloud versions of their games for Nintendo Switch, including The Forgotten City, Control, A Plague Tale: Requiem, and Resident Evil Village.
Earlier this week, Microsoft announced 10-year deal with BoosteroidUkraine-based cloud gaming service to bring Xbox and PC games to more streaming providers. This includes games from Activision Blizzard if the merger with Microsoft goes through.
Xbox is working to crack down on regulators
Microsoft is doing everything it can to mitigate regulators’ concerns about anti-competitive behavior within the gaming industry. Most recently, Microsoft signed his 10-year deal with Nintendo and GeForce Now to make Activision Blizzard games more available on other platforms.
But there are claims between Microsoft and Sony that the merger could irreparably harm competition, and that PlayStation versions of Activision Blizzard games could be hampered and underperform on the platform. As a result, the battle is still raging.
