Microsoft has claimed it doesn’t know some basic facts about Call of Duty, such as when it was first released. Call of Duty is one of the biggest franchises out there and it’s pretty hard to deny that. It seems to be a big reason why Microsoft was so okay with offering to purchase Activision for nearly $70 billion, which would make it the biggest acquisition in the history of gaming. Although Xbox plans to keep Call of Duty on all platforms if it acquires the publisher, some still believe that such a giant company should not have control over Call of Duty. As such, the FTC has moved to block the deal in an antitrust lawsuit.

The FTC claimed Call of Duty is a popular, profitable, and successful video game franchise. Microsoft’s response is that it has no knowledge of Call of Duty revenues and demands all sourcing. Extremely nasty and petty. pic.twitter.com/ISZFv7bs9K
