dbrand annule son boîtier Companion Cube pour la Steam Machine

dbrand a annulé son boîtier Companion Cube pour la Steam Machine après que Valve s'est opposé à l'utilisation sans licence de la propriété intellectuelle de Portal. L'entreprise avait reçu plus de 100 000 précommandes avant de stopper les ventes la semaine dernière.

dbrand a lancé l'accessoire sans avoir préalablement obtenu de licence auprès de Valve. Le produit transformait la Steam Machine en un Companion Cube issu de la série de jeux Portal.

L'entreprise a admis son erreur dans une publication sur Reddit. Elle a précisé que Valve avait refusé de parvenir à un accord après avoir été contacté suite au lancement du produit.

Les remboursements pour toutes les précommandes, incluant les frais d'expédition internationaux, ont été effectués le 29 juin. dbrand a reconnu que Valve détient les droits de décider de la manière dont sa franchise est utilisée.
