Stefanie Fogel, Variety; Bethesda Sues Warner Bros., Calls ‘Westworld’ Game ‘Blatant Ripoff’
"Bethesda Softworks
is suing Warner Bros. Entertainment and Canadian game developer
Behaviour Interactive for allegedly using code from its “Fallout
Shelter” game to create a new “Westworld” mobile app.
Bethesda filed the suit in a District of Maryland court on Thursday,
Jun. 21. It’s accusing Behaviour of breach of contract, copyright
infringement, unfair competition, and misappropriation of trade secrets.
It’s also suing Warner Bros. for allegedly persuading Behaviour to
breach that contract. It now wants both companies to remove each and
every version of the “Westworld” mobile game from distribution and to
stop developing and supporting it. They are also asking for undisclosed
statutory and punitive damages."
