Microsoft seeks court order that would force Sony to give up PlayStation production details as part of FTC lawsuit defense

Microsoft is seeking additional resources to build its defense against the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s lawsuit to block the company’s $69 billion acquisition of games publisher Activision Blizzard, and those resources could potentially come at the cost of its biggest competitor and the deal’s biggest detractor.

According to a recent court filing, Microsoft has subpoenaed Sony Interactive Entertainment, serving the makers of PlayStation with a court order that would force it to “divulge details of [its] game production pipeline,” as first reported by Video Games Chronicle.
