Kotick discusses the removal of Activision games from GeForce Now after the brief beta period. “When they [Nvidia] launched the service commercially we removed our titles,” says Kotick. It sounds like Activision wanted a commercial deal with Nvidia or the games would disappear.
In an internal Activision 2020 email, Kotick discusses a potential commercial agreement to bring Activision games back to GeForce Now. The email is full of talking points for a meeting with Bobby Kotick and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.
Kotick says he never used the talking points, but the FTC is painting a picture here that Activision would put its games on subscription services and cloud services if the price was right, if it could negotiate favorable commercial terms.
