Alain Falc, Nacon owner and CEO warned us on December 28th 2020 in writing that“ You have 48 hours to upload a new Steam master otherwise we will use all solutions available within the law and the contract”. And this is not the first time something like this has happened. But Frogwares didn’t deliver such a version.
So on February 26th 2021 to our great surprise, we found a new version of The Sinking City was uploaded to Steam and launched.
The final decision on whether Frogwares is obligated to deliver the Steam version that Nacon is demanding is still set to be judged in trial court in the next months or even years. The French Justice refused Nacon’s demands twice, first in July 2020 and then in October 2020 during an appeal. Since then Nacon has tried to force Frogwares to deliver a new master version of the game through the use of their lawyers. But since the release of the game, Nacon’s unlawful actions have forced Frogwares to defend its property and react in front of the French Justice for lack of payments, attempts to steal our IPs, etc which we made a public letter about back in August 2020. Steam is one of the listed platforms of commercialization in the contract between Frogwares and Nacon. This post/video will look into a particular aspect of the game’s contract and the findings that we, Frogwares, have made. Since the release of The Sinking City on the 27th of June 2019, Frogwares has encountered continual problems with its licensee, Nacon.
