![]() “Right now we are reviewing all the videos which were copyright strikes. Following the claims, those videos are no longer visible on YouTube. “The reason why we acted so strong and so quick is that we had to stop this misinformation about the data leak,” said a representative of Battlestate’s public relations team, in Russian and through a translator. Escape From Tarkov is a session-based multiplayer shooter with a persistent inventory and economy. Battlestate claims the misinformation was damaging to the company, and had to be dealt with quickly. The confrontation between Battlestate and Eroktic stems from what the developer says was a pair of inaccurate video claiming that user information, including passwords and personal information, had been leaked from the company databases. The law, which is broadly written, tends to support these kinds of actions by game developers. Reached for comment, Battlestate said it had no other choice than to issue DMCA claims, which could result in serious legal issues for Eroktic up to and including the removal of his channel from YouTube. Battlestate Games, developers of the multiplayer tactical shooter Escape From Tarkov, have issued nearly 50 Digital Millennium Copyright Copyright Act (DMCA) claims against a YouTuber with the handle “Eroktic.” Rather than citing piracy or unfair use of content for monetization, Battlestate tells Polygon those claims were made because of incorrect information and overall negativity about their game.
