A court date set for Tuesday will see Tencent face allegations of copyright infringement in China, filed by Shanghai-based studio Moonton Technology.
As reported by South China Morning Post, Tencent is accused of infringing on the rights of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, one of the biggest mobile titles in Southeast Asia. The alleged violations include rights to authorship, reproduction and communications regarding the game.
It's the latest in a string of lawsuits involving Moonton, Tencent, and its subsidiary Riot Games, several of which followed ByteDance's $4 billion acquisition of Moonton in 2021.
