After 30 years as CEO, Bobby Kotick is set to leave Activision Blizzard now that Microsoft’s $68.7 billion acquisition deal has been completed.
Now that the Microsoft acquisition is complete, Bobby Kotick, the CEO of Activision Blizzard, is set to leave the company after the end of this year. In an email sent to employees and published on Activision Blizzard King’s website, Kotick wrote that he’s excited about the future of the company under the bright green Xbox umbrella.
It was expected that Kotick would depart Activision Blizzard once Microsoft’s $68.7 billion acquisition of the company went through. After almost two years of regulatory hearings, including an unsuccessful bid by the Federal Trade Commission to block the deal, the acquisition was finalized this morning, folding Activision Blizzard’s prolific library of games into the Xbox family.
