STAR CITIZEN 3.8 RELEASE DATE TRIAL
STAR CITIZEN 3.8 RELEASE DATE LICENSE

'This case has been marked by a pattern of CIG saying one thing in its public statements and another in this litigation. Public documents tied to the dismissal paint an interesting picture. That being said, it appears not all is coming up roses for Cloud Imperium Games with regard to the matter of the controversial switch from Crytek to Lumberyard.

To ensure the claim remains essentially baseless, however, CIG would like to move forward with a trial anyway.

Because it is not yet clear when, or if, Squadron 42 will release, Crytek wishes to delay the litigation.

STAR CITIZEN 3.8 RELEASE DATE LICENSE

To put in simple terms, Crytek has discovered that CIG has technically not breached its contract with the license holder until that second Squadron 42 project has been fully released. To best understand why this course of action may have taken place, we turn to user RiSC1911 on the Games subreddit. 'Based on CIG's responses to certain written discovery, which Crytek contends revealed new information regarding the ripeness of one of Crytek's existing claims, Crytek wished to voluntarily dismiss its claims against CIG without prejudice, with the intention of refiling the suit against CIG following the release of Squadron 42 by CIG.' Crytek, however, is now seeking to dismiss the case without prejudice, a motion which CIG has refused. Central among the findings is that, now that the research and discovery phase has been completed, a new trial date has been set for October 13, 2020. That case has been dormant for quite some time but has been imbued with new life over the past few days thanks to updated court filings.

Amongst the complaints, Crytek suggested CIG's 2016's switch to Amazon Lumberyard was a breach of contract and that the developer did not have the licensing required to develop a second game in CryEngine, Squadron 42, when it had only licensed for Star Citizen. Cloud Imperium Games/RON1N-Kenshin Spectrumīack in 2017 game developer and engine designer Crytek filed a lawsuit against Star Citizen's developers, Cloud Imperium Games, largely on the basis of what they believe to be unsanctioned use of its CryEngine development tools. 'Star Citizen' is an ambitious game, but lawsuits regarding its single-player portion, 'Squadron 42,' raise interesting questions.
