A raft of lawsuits from the games industry argues that making cheats for games — and even using them — might be illegal.
a cheat-maker in that country, who was sued back in 2018, to pay Grand Theft Auto publisher Take-Two Interactive AU $130,000.A cheat that draws a box around an opposing player, who would otherwise be hidden from view, is creating unauthorized derivative works, suits from Bungie and others claim.Most defendants in the cheating cases have no-showed or folded, agreeing to damages and settling. But Bungie has encountered feisty resistance throughout 2022 from purported cheat-makers Phoenix Digital.
“‘Cheating in Destiny’ is not, in and of itself, unlawful,” the group’s lawyer said in a court filing back in January. The increasingly wild case has included Phoenix Digital's countersuing Bungie for allegedly violatingterms of service in September and the judge dismissing claims on both sides that were since refiled with more specifics.Companies aren’t showing that they have an appetite to sue garden-variety cheaters, but the lawsuits are designed to serve as a warning shot to those who think cheating in an online game can be consequence-free.
