The 'Stop Killing Games' initiative, a European campaign advocating for the preservation of video games and continued access to online games after official shutdowns, has surpassed 1.25 million signatures. If validated, the petition will be submitted to the European Commission for evaluation on whether new legislation is necessary to protect digital games from being permanently discontinued. The movement has gained widespread attention across Europe, marking a milestone for video game preservation efforts. However, the campaign faces challenges including concerns over potential signature spoofing and opposition from major industry stakeholders. Video Games Europe, the trade group representing game publishers, has responded by emphasizing that many games are designed to be available only online and that maintaining indefinite access could be prohibitively expensive. They also note that private servers are not always a viable alternative. The debate highlights tensions between consumer demands for game preservation and the economic and technical realities faced by publishers.
