The suit, filed in Northern California's US District Court ( via Art Technica), breaks down characters deemed as "a copyrightable audio-visual work, individually and/or in combination with other elements of Battlegrounds”.
In the past, PUBG Corp threatened legal action against Fortnite creator Epic, but it seems to be acting on NetEase’s violations that appear to be rather numerous. PUBG Corp is suing NetEase for alleged copyright and trademark violations. These gained popularity prior to PUBG Mobile’s release and while that game was developed by Tencent studio Lightspeed and Quantum, it seems that PUBG publisher and developer of the PC and Xbox One versions, PUBG Corp (a wholly owned subsidiary of Korean game publisher Bluehole) has had enough of it. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ( PUBG) has seen a host of imitators on Android and iOS such as Knives Out and Rules of Survival from Chinese publisher NetEase.
