EU says Microsoft’s Zenimax deal ‘could fall within rules’ but no approval yet

From VGC: “The European Union has found that Microsoft’s proposed $7.5 billion acquisition of ZeniMax could fall within its competition regulations, but no final decision has been made on the deal.

As reported last week, the EU will decide by March 5 whether to clear the acquisition, which would see the Xbox firm gain ownership of games publisher Bethesda and its many franchises including Fallout, The Elder Scrolls and Doom.”
