On September 15, 2026, a Delaware judge, Chancellor Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick, held off on approving a $250 million cash settlement intended to resolve a shareholder class action challenging the terms of Microsoft Corp.'s acquisition of Activision Blizzard Inc. The judge stated she required additional time to consider objections from merger arbitrage funds that have pending parallel federal securities claims. This follows an assessment on September 13, 2026, which noted that the company's title, Overwatch 2, continues to command a large and engaged audience despite carrying the scars of a cancelled campaign and the collapse of its esports experiment. Earlier, on August 25, 2026, speculation arose regarding the potential revelation of a new Crash Bandicoot game in 2026, a franchise fondly remembered as a PlayStation console mascot since its 1996 debut.
