Activision<\/strong> is about to embark on another legal battle. This time, the company has been sued by Scump<\/strong> and H3CZ<\/strong>, one of the world’s most popular Call of Duty players and the owner of OpTic, respectively. The lawsuit alleges that Activision currently maintains an “illegal monopoly<\/strong>” over the competitive Call of Duty scene.<\/p>\n\n\n

According to Dexerto<\/a>, one of the major disputes has been caused by the initial registration fee<\/strong> of the Call of Duty League. Activision forced 12 teams to pay “exorbitant 27.5 million dollars<\/strong>” just to be able to compete<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, the lawsuit also points out the abusive restrictions imposed by the Call of Duty publisher. In them, Activision supposedly has the exclusive right to contract the most lucrative sponsors<\/strong>“. This limits the freedom<\/strong> of teams and players to make their own agreements with brands and generate additional income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, participants in the Call of Duty League were also required to “refrain from participating in or supporting any Call of Duty league or tournament” other than the Call of Duty League. In compensation for damages, Scump and H3CZ have asked Activision for 680 million dollars<\/strong>, according to Bloomberg Law. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n
