育碧因《飆酷車神》在法國面臨法律訴訟
Ubisoft faces legal action over The Crew in France
Ubisoft 正面臨一場關於 2014 年賽車遊戲《飆酷車神》(ㄅㄧㄠㄎㄨㄔㄜㄕㄣ) 的重大法國法律訴訟。
Ubisoft is facing a major legal battle in France concerning the 2014 racing game, The Crew.
2026 年 3 月,消費者團體 UFC-Que Choisir 對該發行商提起訴訟,指控他們在玩家的所有權益上誤導了消費者。
In March 2026, the consumer group UFC-Que Choisir filed a lawsuit against the publisher, alleging that they misled players about their ownership rights.
在 Ubisoft 於 2024 年關閉該遊戲伺服器後,這款遊戲變得完全無法遊玩,即便是購買了實體版遊戲的玩家也受到影響。
After Ubisoft shut down the game's servers in 2024, the title became completely unplayable, even for those who had purchased physical copies.
這項法律挑戰得到了「停止扼殺遊戲」(Stop Killing Games) 活動的支持,該活動旨在對抗數位軟體的銷毀。
The legal challenge is supported by the Stop Killing Games campaign, which fights against the destruction of digital software.
爭議的核心在於,購買遊戲究竟是構成真正的所有權,還是僅僅是一種公司可隨時終止的有限許可。
The core of the dispute lies in whether a game purchase constitutes true ownership or simply a limited license that a company can terminate at any time.
儘管 Ubisoft 辯稱其服務條款允許這樣做,但法國的訴訟旨在建立一個保護消費者權益的法律先例。
While Ubisoft argues that their terms of service allow for this, the French lawsuit seeks to set a legal precedent that protects consumer rights.
此案可能迫使整個遊戲產業採取更好的保存措施,確保玩家購買的遊戲在官方支援結束後仍能繼續存取。
This case could force the entire gaming industry to adopt better preservation practices, ensuring that purchased games remain accessible even after official support ends.
目前,大眾的強烈抗議已促使 Ubisoft 在該系列較新的作品中增加了離線模式,證明消費者倡議正在重塑公司處理數位產品生命週期的方式。
Already, the public outcry has prompted Ubisoft to add offline modes to newer titles in the series, proving that consumer advocacy is reshaping how companies handle the lifecycle of digital products.
