Though it respects the European Commission's "different view," the Competition and Markets Authority "stands by its decision."
Microsoft has committed to measures that “address the competition concerns" and "represent a significant improvement for cloud gaming."
The decision "rejects a pragmatic path to address competition concerns and discourages technology innovation and investment in the UK,” said Microsoft.
The authority the deal would "would alter the future of the fast-growing cloud gaming market," leading to "less choice for UK gamers."
The Competition and Markets Authority in the UK says there's a "realistic prospect" of lessened competition for consoles, game streaming, and more.
Some of these "won't come to light for years." In the meantime, Microsoft is looking to extend "the Xbox experience to more devices today."
