Jeff and Annie Strain, owners of Prytania Media, are filing a lawsuit against NetEase for defamation, claiming the Chinese company made false statements that harmed their business. They allege that NetEase suggested they engaged in financial fraud, which deterred potential investors and ultimately led to the closure of their studios, Crop Circle Games and Possibility Space. This lawsuit comes after the Strains previously attributed their studio closures to leaks reported by Kotaku. The case is set for federal court, highlighting significant workplace fallout from these events.
The Strains allege NetEase spread false statements about Prytania Media's financial conduct, influencing investors and leading to the closure of their gaming studios.
Despite previous claims attributing the failure of Prytania Media to leaks, the Strains now contend that NetEase's actions caused their business's demise.
