Microsoft announced, this Tuesday (18), the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, responsible for Call of Duty, Overwatch and Diablo
. The company will disburse US$ 68.7 billion — the largest amount in the history of the industry — to buy one of the main publishers in the sector.
The surprising news was also accompanied by many memes. First, highlighting Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft Gaming, using up to the famous jargon from streamer Casimiro: “Do you accept Pix?”.

The purchase of Activision Blizzard even opened the minds of players to possible crossovers, such as Crash Bandicoot (former mascot of PlayStation) and Halo .

As it could not be missing, the fans made several jokes with Sony and the loss of one of its main partners. The Japanese company has exclusive content in games from Call of Duty and probably won’t have the same privilege in the future.
