THQ and Activision Blizzard settle boxart issue, ActiBlizz changes cover
Just a couple of weeks after THQ filed a lawsuit against Activision Blizzard for supposedly copying the boxart cover of their Baja Edge of Control (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) game on CORE International Baja 1000 (PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, PS2), we find the two camps settling their scores — out of court. More details after the jump.
Now that’s settled. The previously reported legal squabble between THQ and Activision Blizzard over the boxarts of SCORE International Baja 1000 (PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, PS2) and Baja Edge of Control (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) has been closed.
It looks like ActiBlizz opted for the easy (but definitely pricey) way out by settling with THQ out of court by agreeing to change their artwork for Baja 1000. And you know what settlement means. Either both of them weren’t up to duking it out for months/years to come just trying to prove whose is what, or the settling party would rather not be found guilty in court.
You take your pick. At least all that can be put aside now. Here’s the new boxart cover for Activision’s Baja Edge of Control:
