Rather, it claims that AF2 was taken down in order to “carry out improvements in order to deliver a better experience to players.” For Richard Hoeg, attorney at Hoeg Law, the decision to skirt around the suit is a deliberate one.
Notably, Ejoy’s announcement post does not mention the lawsuit. Now, just days later, operation of Area F2 has come to an end and the game has been delisted from the App Store and Google Play Store. Ubisoft claimed that Area F2, a mobile title from developer, is a head-to-toe clone of its popular tactical competitive shooter.
Last week, Ubisoft launched a lawsuit against Apple and Google for their part in selling a game that Ubisoft says is a direct copy of Rainbow Six: Siege. Ubisoft's copyright infringement suit against Apple and Google appears to have motivated developer to shut down Area F2 for the time being.
