As Microsoft tries its best to convince regulators to let its acquisition of Activision Blizzard go through, the company quietly revealed that it’s in the process of building an Xbox mobile gaming store.

At the beginning of this year, Microsoft announced its intention of acquiring Activision Blizzard. Since then, regulators from around the world have been looking into the $68.7 billion deal. Although some of those regulators have already given their approval for the acquisition, the deal has caught on a snag with the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).
