Destiny 2 creators accused of plagiarism

American writer Kelsey Martino has filed a lawsuit accusing the creators of the shooter Destiny 2 of plagiarizing his work.

According to the plaintiff, Bungie studio used the plot concepts of one of the writer's books, which was published a couple of years before the release of the game. In it, as in Destiny 2, there is a certain Red Legion and someone similar to its leader Dominus Ghaul. In addition, in the game, as in the book, there is a motive for the group to invade Earth, so the analogy is obvious.

The company has not yet responded to Martino's statements. The amount of the writer's demands has also not been disclosed.
