Activision Blizzard reports historic financial gains amid major layoffs | Epic critical of Fortnite dance lawsuit | 18Point2 acquired by THQ Nordic

Activision Blizzard published its 2018 earnings report CEO Bobby Kotick stated that "we didn't realize our full potential." The company is also laying off a lot of people (current estimates are about 800 staff) this week in some "restructuring" that the company predicts will cost it roughly $150 million.  Epic Games is going on the offensive after being hit with a smorgasbord of lawsuits for allegedly stealing well-known dance moves and using them as emotes in Fortnite.
