This is the best summary I could come up with:

Microsoft just finalized its giant $68.7 billion deal to acquire Activision Blizzard earlier today.

Xbox chief Phil Spencer has now welcomed Activision Blizzard King employees to Xbox in an internal memo to all of Microsoft’s full-time employees today.

“We couldn’t be more excited that Activision Blizzard employees are our colleagues, co-workers, and teammates,” says Spencer.

“Bobby Kotick has agreed to remain in his role through the end of 2023, reporting directly to me, to ensure a smooth and seamless integration.

We look forward to working together as a unified team and we will share more updates on our new organizational structure in the coming months.”

Spencer will now visit the Activision, Blizzard, and King offices in the coming weeks, and Microsoft employees will be able to greet their new colleagues at Microsoft’s next virtual all-hands meeting for Xbox employees on November 8th.
