Image comparisons from the Krafton lawsuit, showing PUBG and Free Fire’s similar use of frying pans.
Krafton is currently seeking damages from Garena (and the other companies involved) over what it describes as “rampant, willful copyright infringement” surrounding the release of two Garena-developed games, Free Fire and Free Fire Max.
PUBG developer Krafton has filed a lawsuit against mobile developer Garena, as well as both Apple and Google, over two mobile games that the developer believes copy its popular online shooter.
While both Free Fire and Free Fire Max are available for free on Google Play and the Apple App store, they do include a number of additional in-app purchases.
