Peak Games and Hasbro Settle Mobile Game Copyright Dispute

2017/05/27

Peak Games and Hasbro, the creator of “My Little Pony”, have reached an out-of-court settlement over their copyright infringement case surrounding a mobile phone game. The order of dismissal was delivered by the US District Court for the Northern District of California San Jose Division on May 24. The initial claim, which was filed in October 2016, alleged that Hasbro’s “My Little Pony: Puzzle Party” game had “trampled” on Peak’s IP rights for its “Toy Blast” puzzle app. Hasbro’s version is of a similar format to Toy Blast and is described on various app stores as “matching gameplay you love with a splash of adventure”.
