Stop K*lling Games Inspired a New Consumer Bill in Brazil

Brazilian congresswoman Jandira Feghali, alongside Marcio Filho, introduced Bill PL 3612/2026, a law directly inspired by the "Stop Killing Games" movement. The proposal forces publishers to keep digital games playable after live servers shut down, framing it as a win for consumer rights and cultural heritage preservation. It aims to amend Brazil's Consumer Defense Code. The legislative push follows recent setbacks for the global campaign: the European Commission declined to mandate game preservation, and California’s AB 1921 bill stalled due to ESA opposition (though it remains open for reconsideration). The "Stop Killing Games" movement began after Ubisoft killed the server-dependent racing game The Crew, rendering it unplayable for buyers. It has since evolved into a global battle over digital ownership and corporate accountability for end-of-life gaming software.
