Microsoft signs 10-year deal with Boosteroid to secure access to Xbox, Activision PC games post-merger

Microsoft justconfirmedthat it signed a 10-year deal with Boosteroid. According to the Redmond company, the agreement will ensure the cloud gaming platform has access to Xbox PC and Activision Blizzard PC games once the proposed massive $69 billion deal closes.

Microsoft continues to persuade different competition regulators to approve its proposed Activision merger. To allay concerns, the software giant offered 10-year deals to rivals including Nintendo and Nvidia, which Sony still refuses to accept. Now, Raymond Co. has signed another deal. This time, it's working with Boosteroid, a company with R&D operations in Ukraine.

"We believe in the power of games to bring people together. That's why Xbox is committed to giving everyone more ways to play their favorite games across devices," Microsoft Gaming CEO Fiers Spencer said. "Once the deal closes, bringing Xbox PC games to Boosteroid members, including Activision Blizzard games like 'Call of Duty, is another step in realizing this vision."

according to Microsoft , the deal will bring COD to more players than the 150 million it recently advertised. Since Boosteroid's platform covers gamers in the US, EU and UK, the deal should help Microsoft further build its good image in the eyes of regulators, especially the UK Competition and Markets Authority, which continues to be skeptical of the deal manner.
