MMOEXP: Madden NFL 25 game to help him prepare
The original Madden 25 coins design team member Robin Antonick's suit in court against Electronic Arts is going to go to trial after an California federal judge denied Electronic Arts' final effort to dismiss the case according to a statement by his lawyer. Antonick originally filed suit against EA in April 2022.
Antonick has accused EA of not paying royalties and claiming a portion of the earnings that the series has earned throughout its history. Over 99 million Madden NFL games were sold so far which has generated billions in revenues.
In the lawsuit Antonick invented and created Madden's first game version. Madden that has been described as "miraculous" in the words of EA. All told, he's seeking millions of dollars in settlement.
"We have strong evidence that suggests EA utilized Mr. Antonick's revolutionary design and code as the basis of both the present and past buy mut coins games," said Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP Partner Robert Carey in a statement. "Yet, EA has failed to honor the compensation owed to him under his contract or to give him the appropriate recognition for his efforts. We are looking at proving our case in court, and we're certain that we will prevail."
