This is a pretty damning “they used assets of when they were under contract”, so, for once, squeenix isn’t entirely in the wrong.
On the other hand, why the fuck did they even cancel the production? The studio went ahead and released it, with people apparently enjoying the game, so that’s on you being stupid, squeenix.

Depends what the contract says. If some line somewhere says that the developer retains copyright if Square Enix cancels their end of the deal, then the developer is correct.
The only thing we on the outside can make a somewhat educated guess on is that probably both sides think they’re in the right. Maybe details of the contract were lost in translation between Japanese and Chinese.
The notable detail I find interesting is that they try to stop the US release of the game whereas the Japanese and Chinese release went ahead just fine and SE only later decided to sue in Japan as well.

I mean those screenshots are pretty damning. Most the time I could wave it away with well its just the genera but this is just the same game.
