Require publishers to leave videogames (and related game assets / features) they have sold to customers in a reasonably working state when support ends, so that no further intervention whatsoever is necessary for the game to function, as a statutory consumer right.

For those wondering, this is an official government petition with two signature tresholds:

  • 10,000 signatures: government will respond to this petition
  • 100,000 signatures: this petition will be considered for debate in Parliament

Deadline: 16 October 2024

Here’s the Stop Killing Games campaign site for those unaware or not from UK.
