Valve moves to dismiss gambling lawsuit against Counter-Strike 2 cases
Valve has filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the New York Attorney General, which accuses the company of promoting unregulated gambling through Counter-Strike 2's in-game item cases, particularly to minors. Valve argues that punishing them would set a dangerous precedent, comparing the cases to collectibles like baseball cards and questioning the AG's interpretation of gambling laws. The lawsuit seeks damages and a ban on selling cases in New York.
