Gamers persist in legal battle against Microsoft's Activision acquisition.

Microsoft has responded to a re-filed lawsuit by a group of gamers against its $68.7bn Activision Blizzard acquisition, stating that the complaint contains "unsupported and implausible claims about the deal's effect on competition". The gamers' lawsuit aims to argue that the acquisition would limit output, reduce consumer choice, raise prices, and further inhibit competition. The original lawsuit was dismissed by a judge last month, but the gamers were allowed to re-file if fresh information were to be included.
