A petition to preserve video game access has reached one million signatures, triggering EU consideration of potential legislation. This milestone marks a significant step for the "Stop Killing Games" movement. The initiative, spearheaded by Ross Scott, aims to prevent developers from shutting down games and revoking player licenses. The movement now faces challenges from potentially invalid signatures and opposition from major game studios. The petition's success follows Ubisoft's delisting of The Crew, prompting concerns about player access to purchased games. The movement needs more valid signatures and faces resistance from industry groups.
