"Microsoft Shakes Up Xbox Leadership Amid Bobby Kotick's Departure from Activision"

Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick is stepping down, and Microsoft has announced further leadership changes within the Xbox division. Instead of appointing a direct replacement, Microsoft has integrated the suite of Activision Blizzard executives under Matt Booty, the president of game content and studios. The leadership team of Activision Blizzard will largely remain in place, with some executive-level exceptions. Microsoft is continuing to integrate Activision Blizzard into its gaming business and fans are eagerly awaiting news on the addition of Activision Blizzard games to Xbox Game Pass.
