Microsoft says Sony has blocked Bloodborne and other Xbox games

The company said that game exclusivity is something normal in the gaming industry and justified the purchase of Activision Blizzard

A Microsoft disclosed to the UK Competition and Market Authority (CMA) that the sony has entered into a series of agreements to ensure that the company’s exclusive games are not available on consoles Xboxes. The argument is part of the US company’s attempt to convince the regulatory bodies of the acquisition of activision Blizzard.

Among the games that would have been excluded from Sony are Final Fantasy 7 Remake (Square Enix), Bloodborne (FromSoftware) and upcoming releases such as Final Fantasy 16 (Square Enix) and the new Silent Hill 2 remaster (Konami)🇧🇷 Microsoft claims that Sony guarantees in the clauses that specific third-party games are not available on the console.

If the information presented by Microsoft to the CMA matches, Xbox gamers can say goodbye to the hope of being able to play titles like Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 16 on Xbox. In recently used promotional materials from Sony, the company claims that the exclusivity is temporary for the Play station🇧🇷 However, only time will tell who is right.

Microsoft defends acquisition of Activision Blizzard

Microsoft’s goal was to demonstrate that companies’ exclusivity deals with major studios are common practice in the gaming industry. Using Nintendo as an example, North Americans cited titles like Xenoblade Chronicles, Pokémon, Super Mario, Zelda, and Animal Crossing. Meanwhile, Sony would still have God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us, and Spider-Man.

Microsoft has decided to move in recent weeks in an attempt to convince regulatory bodies on the acquisition of Activision Blizzard. In a letter sent to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) this week, the company compiled nearly 40 pages of pro-merger arguments, highlighting the size of Sony and its competitors.

Furthermore, he took the opportunity to reiterate that Bethesda, the studio acquired by the American company in 2020, will launch three games that will be exclusive to Xbox. Rumors circulating on the internet suggest that it could be Starfield, Redfall and The Elder Scrolls VI. Some still believe it could be the new Indiana Jones game.
