NCSoft loses appeal in copyright suit against Kakao Games over ArcheAge War
NCSoft lost again on appeal in a copyright infringement lawsuit against Kakao Games over the mobile MMORPG ArcheAge War, which it said copied its game Lineage2M. The Seoul High Court rejected NCSoft\'s appeal on March 12. The court said it was difficult to view the plaintiff\'s game as a work with distinct creativity and individuality, and cited public-domain elements in claims of unfair competition.
