EA to meet Activision in court

Electronic Arts has lost its bid to be cleared from a bitter and expensive lawsuit between rival Activision and axed Infinity Ward staff.

EA’s argument, that accusations thrown at it were without merit, was dismissed this week by a California judge.

Activision is suing EA for surreptitiously recruiting two men central to Infinity Ward and the Call OF Duty Modern Warfare franchise.

EA denies the allegations. The judge’s decision to not absolve EA from the lawsuit does not mean it will be held liable.
