You may be wondering what is the Activision Blizzard games list is, after seeing the huge news that Microsoft is set to purchase the company for a whopping 70 billion dollars. Activision Blizzard is home to some of the largest gaming IPs on the planet, along with huge studios like Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer Games, who Xbox can now employ to help with other studios and develop exclusive titles for the Xbox ecosystem. It's the biggest deal in video game history, and with all the new IPs Xbox has acquired, we've got a round-up of the Activision Blizzard games list.

With all the studios under Activision's umbrella, the legendary IPs of Blizzard, and the mobile titles from King, these are the games that Microsoft could own after the deal:

Obviously, we don't expect Microsoft to make use of all these IPs, but with some titans there like Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, and Overwatch, the potential is endless. One of the chief complaints Xbox has received during the last and current generation is that they lack quality first-party titles, but this deal gives them both the manpower and IPs to rectify that even more - and of course that's without mentioning that they have all the future Bethesda titles too.
You may also notice that Candy Crush is part of the deal - as developer King was bought in the acquisition - which could see Xbox make some more moves into the mobile gaming space, even potentially utilising GamePass there too. Additionally, this deals gives Microsoft more publishing arms and esports production courtesy of MLG, which they're sure to take advantage of with the burgeoning Halo competitive scene.
That's all for the rundown of the Activision Blizzard games list, and now you know all the titles that Microsoft can make use of.
