Link to article of predator creators and Disney involved in a lawsuit over predator
It turns out, I am not strong in US laws, the game can also be affected due to copyright?
Yes the game will be affected
While the rights are up in the air it’s unknown who would make the profits from any content and therefore nothing new can be sold after tomorrow whether it be new content for this game, t-shirts, collectibles, movies, etc
ALL ASSETS tied to the IP, including the game, yes.
F13 had the same thing.
They weren’t even able to produce anything for their 30th anniversary. Also why f13 the game died out due to not being able to produce future content.
I have a suspicion that iLLfonic planned for this just so they could make a quick shit game to make a buck and bail. Once is bad luck twice is just too weird to be coincidence.
In the figures neca predator, affect??
Well it seems like the trend is happening to 80s horror games.
Which funny enough, that’s all they (illfonic) really have tried to produce, knowing the possibilities of their last attempt at doing this.
I smell fish.
Everything.
Product that already exists will continue to be sold (digital too), just no new products or license will appear.
Friday even launched on the Switch (technically not a new product) after the lawsuit, but it contains all the same content as the other versions.
I am not too savvy in how exactly it will effect things but i would think that since the og owners are fighting to get the rights back means Disney still owns it til its settled so the content for the game since already in development would be allowed to drop still? If it was the other way around then maybe it would be different…what i mean is, for example the alien game that was in development before Disney owned the fights was discarded which to me looked like disney was "no we cant let another company release a game that we wanna make money off of so it was like a strong arm move that they killed that and now we have the alien fireteam game coming out under the ownership of Disney.
Now if they (og owners) win then that could mean the game MIGHT have issues then again idk if they would be against their creation having a game ppl play and are greedy like Disney where they would shut it down. But we will see how it goes
That’s what I said
As far as I know, the aliens universe does not have such problems. Only problems with the quality of the game idea)
Must have missed the new.
My mistake
I only said it twice 😜
Definitely your mistake, 😇
If they will get the rights back, than It can go either way - Sony will or will not make a deal with them. Not much is said as to why are they so determent to get the rights back. It could be a deciding factor though. If its only for money - yup, Sony can get a deal with them no bother. If its to do with the amount of bullshit being pumped in to this franchise, if it’s an attempt to get it back on track, than… well… you know -Viking and Samurai cossplay wanna-be preds, references to The Predator 2018? This game will disappear XDDDDD.
Time will tell , in the end they might only change the amount in their bank accounts, or they might slay the mouse and get some creative control back . Either way? Illfonic still shit the bed with this game!
