Microsoft Corp.’s Activision division is negotiating changes that could give team owners in its Call of Duty League a greater share of revenue, according to people familiar with the discussions.
The owners want a bigger cut of their teams’ virtual merchandise sales and fewer restrictions on sponsorships, said the people, who asked to not be identified because the discussions aren’t public.
