Bobby Kotick just threw massive shade at Embracer Group amid his ongoing legal drama. This mess started when Swedish pension fund AP7 sued the executive for allegedly rushing the Microsoft buyout to escape harassment scandals. Kotick claims the plaintiffs actually colluded with his rival to manipulate stock prices. He argues that the deal offered a huge premium despite claims that he sold cheap.

Legal filings point fingers at Emma Ihre since she served on the pension board while working as a high-ranking suit for the Swedish gaming giant. Lawyers argue the timing looks suspicious because Embracer shares spiked right after the complaint went public. They believe the bad press was manufactured to help the competitor establish a foothold in California and poach talent.

Kotick also alleges the legal attack aimed to hurt Activision's game development directly. He notes that titles like Overwatch 2 Hero Mode faced cancellation while Embracer released competing projects such as Dead Island 2 and Remnant 2. The defense team insists the sale price actually saved investors from losses since the company missed performance targets later.

Embracer Group totally rejected these wild theories about secret collaboration. Representatives stated they never needed help competing and denied any coordination with the pension fund through Ihre. The company maintains that no instructions were ever directed to AP7 regarding the litigation.
