The FTC has once again resumed its case against Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, after a pause over the summer.
It means the FTC can still battle the deal even after it closes, reports Bloomberg, though it won’t derail its completion by 18th October.
A new order, released yesterday, states the FTC has “determined that the public interest warrants that this matter be resolved fully and expeditiously. Therefore, the Commission is returning this matter to adjudication”.
An admin hearing is to be held 21 days after the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issues its opinion regarding the previous appeal.
