Alegre will leave office on March 31, 2023 and for the moment a successor has not been indicated. The idea therefore is that his departure is linked to the acquisition of Activision Blizzard by Microsoft, which should be completed by June 30, 2023.
However, the maneuver could be delayed, if not blocked altogether, due to the US FTC, which has decided to oppose the acquisition. For its part, Microsoft is ready to fight in court.
