Margret Vestagerwho explained in it several reasons that ultimately contributed to the approval of the acquisition.

First, Vestager said that approx. four times as many PlayStation consoles than the competing Xbox. However, it is not clear from the statement for which period the sales data is taken.

The European Commissioner adds that the higher share in this segment is primarily due to this popular Call of Duty series, whose possible exclusivity, however, according to the European Commission, Microsoft is more likely to shoot itself in the foot.
