While it is difficult to guess if the title will make a reappearance on Steam, it is safe to say that it has had a remarkable debut on the platform and was shaping up to have a bright future.A bitter feud between two South Korean video game developers has exploded and resulted in not just legal threats and copyright notices, but in police raids and a bizarre attempt to exonerate oneself by using artificial intelligence. The Japanese-Korean publisher now believes that Ironmace's hit RPG has "striking similarities" with project P3, and claims the title's development heavily depended on the stolen data, assets, and even personnel.Īlthough Ironmace denied Nexon's allegations, the recent DMCA takedown shows that the crisis between the two studios is still in action. Nexon also shared that the former lead suggested their teammates quit the company and develop a game that is similar to project P3. The game publishing company claimed that the former leader of their P3 project leaked thousands of assets and was fired in 2021. Ironmace studio was raided by South Korean police on March 8 following Nexon's allegations, which essentially stated that the Dark and Darker developers used stolen assets and staff during the game's development. It is worth noting that this is not the first time the Korean game studio has bumped into legal issues, though.
