EU Parliament Takes Aim at Game-Killing Publishers This Week
The European Parliament is holding a public hearing on the 'Stop Destroying Videogames' initiative to address concerns about publishers shutting down servers for games that players have purchased. The initiative aims to establish clearer digital ownership rights and explore options for community-run servers after official ones are decommissioned. This move signifies a growing regulatory focus on consumer rights within the gaming industry, with potential implications for how games are sold and maintained.
