The acquisition of Activision Blizzard is included in a Microsoft quarterly report for the first time.
It’s time for another round of quarterly reports (for October-December), with Microsoft being the first among major video game companies. As usual, they reported incredible revenue, reaching $62 billion in the quarter, of which $21.9 billion was net income. Considering that Activision Blizzard cost just under $70 billion, that means they recouped about a third of that purchase in three months.
