Video games and public figures: Legal update 2017
The legal landscape regarding the use of celebrity likenesses, names, and personas in video games remains highly unpredictable within the United States.
- Developers face significant financial risk for using celebrity likenesses, evidenced by a 60-million-dollar settlement paid to athletes in EA Sports litigation and a 15-million-dollar verdict against a comic book author.
- Courts lack a consistent legal framework for publicity rights, with outcomes ranging from protecting creative expression to massive judgments, such as the 403,000-dollar award against Samsung for a robot depiction of Vanna White.
- The primary risk factor for litigation is the developer's intent; if the inclusion of a persona is perceived as a strategy to leverage fame for audience attraction, courts are increasingly likely to rule against the developer.
