Valve attempt to get the New York lootbox lawsuit dismissed as "People enjoy surprises"
Valve is attempting to have a New York lawsuit regarding lootboxes dismissed, arguing that "people enjoy surprises" and comparing them to collectibles like baseball cards. The company's legal team filed a memo asserting that New York's interpretation of gambling laws is overly broad and could criminalize common commercial transactions. This case, filed by the New York Attorney General, could have significant legal implications if it proceeds.
