Gamers sue Ubisoft over unplayable 'The Crew'
Gamers allege that Ubisoft's game is riddled with bugs and crashes
Gamers are suing Ubisoft Entertainment for allegedly releasing a defective game in The Crew.
The class-action lawsuit, filed in the Northern District of California, alleges that Ubisoft's game is riddled with bugs and crashes that make it unplayable.
The lawsuit seeks damages for gamers who purchased The Crew, as well as injunctive relief to force Ubisoft to fix the game.
Ubisoft has not yet commented on the lawsuit.
This is not the first time that Ubisoft has been sued over a defective game. In 2014, the company was sued over the game Assassin's Creed: Unity, which was also plagued with bugs and crashes.
Ubisoft settled that lawsuit for $1.7 million.
The Crew was released in 2014 and is a massively multiplayer racing game. The game allows players to race against each other in a variety of different vehicles.
The Crew has been criticized for its bugs and crashes, as well as for its lack of content.
The lawsuit is likely to be closely watched by the gaming industry. If successful, it could lead to other lawsuits against game companies that release defective games.
