Ubisoft Wins Bratz Arbitration

In 2002 Ubisoft signed a deal with MGA Entertainment to publish video games based on the Bratz doll IP. In 2003 MGA tried to terminate the contract on the basis that Ubisoft was not meeting its obligations. Ubisoft refused to re-negotiate, and litigation ensued.

Ubisoft now reports that it has been successful in the relevant arbitration proceedings, to the tune of more than $13 million.
