An Epic Battle With the Knights

Epic has filed a Motion to Dismiss Silicon Knights (“SK”) mid-July lawsuit and a cross-claim, alleging that SK’s lawsuit is merely a strategy, designed to force Epic to renegotiate its license agreement. SK’s lawsuit is based on alleged contractual breaches, particularly with respect to the tardy delivery of Epic’s Xbox 360 versions of the Unreal Engine code 3 and the misuse of royalties paid by sundry licensees to compete with them and ensure commercial success of its own game title.
