Nvidia Corp. said that it now supports Microsoft Corp.'s
acquisition of Activision Blizzard Inc. after signing a 10-year
cloud agreement with the software giant.
Under the agreement, Microsoft will integrate its Xbox PC games
into the graphics chip maker's GeForce Now cloud gaming service,
the companies said Tuesday.
"The partnership delivers increased choice to gamers and
resolves Nvidia's concerns with Microsoft's acquisition of
Activision Blizzard. Nvidia therefore is offering its full support
for regulatory approval of the acquisition," the companies
said.
The cloud service deal will allow gamers to stream Xbox PC
titles from GeForce Now to PCs, Apple Inc.'s macOS, Google
Chromebooks and smartphones, among other devices.
It will also enable Activision Blizzard PC titles, such as Call
of Duty, to be streamed on GeForce Now once Microsoft closes the
acquisition of the video game holding group, the companies
added.
Xbox Game Studios, the video gaming brand created and owned by
Microsoft, has published franchises such as Age of Empires and
Forza.
