The Stop Killing Games campaign will set up NGOs in the EU and US

"The Stop Killing Games campaign is evolving into more than just a movement. In a YouTube video, the campaign's creator, Ross Scott, explained that organizers are planning to establish two non-governmental organizations, one for the European Union and another for the US. According to Scott, these NGOs would allow for "long-term counter lobbying" when publishers end support for certain video games."

""Let me start off by saying I think we're going to win this, namely the problem of publishers destroying video games that you've already paid for," Scott said in the video. According to Scott, the NGOs will work on getting the original Stop Killing Games petition codified into EU law, while also pursuing more watchdog actions, like setting up a system to report publishers for revoking access to purchased video games."

The Stop Killing Games campaign is transitioning into institutional advocacy by creating two non-governmental organizations, one for the EU and one for the US. The NGOs aim to enable long-term counter-lobbying and pursue watchdog actions such as a reporting system for publishers that revoke access to purchased video games. Organizers plan to work toward codifying the original petition into EU law. The movement originated after Ubisoft delisted The Crew from player libraries and surpassed one million signatures. Leadership will meet with the European Commission and is preparing a 500-page legal paper detailing controversial industry practices. Ubisoft later added an offline mode to The Crew 2.
