Foreign media broke the news: Riot may add a third international event to League of Legends in 2024
In a recent podcast video, MonteCristo, the commentator for the outer division, broke the news about the League of Legends e-sports event: Fist Games may add a third international event to the League of Legends e-sports event in 2024.
The main reason is that audiences like to watch cross-regional confrontations, and Riot Games also intends to add a third international event to continue to increase ratings for League of Legends e-sports events. At present, Riot has two international competitions: MSI and S competition.
South Africa unconditionally approves Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard: reasons to be revealed in due course
South Africa’s Competition Tribunal recently said it had “unconditionally approved” Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard. The tribunal said the reasons for its decision would be published in due course.
The proposed acquisition has been approved by nearly 40 global regulators. Regulators in China and the European Commission both backed the deal in May. However, the U.K. and U.S. remain a conundrum for Microsoft. In April, Britain’s Competition and Markets Authority said it would block the $69 billion deal due to concerns about its impact on the nascent cloud gaming market.
Microsoft has formally appealed against the Competition and Markets Authority’s decision, which it says is unfavorable to the UK. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has also filed a lawsuit seeking to block the proposed acquisition on antitrust grounds.
