Following last month’s developments where Aristocrat saw its initial complaint partially dismissed, the Dragon Link supplier has issued its first amended complaint “to stop Light & Wonder from free-riding” on the success of its slot machine.
Filed with the US District Court for the District of Nevada, Aristocrat’s reissued complaint refers to the maths within Dragon Link as “difficult, if not impossible, for others to replicate”, while suggesting that L&W has conducted a “wide-ranging campaign to copy Dragon Link” by hiring several former Aristocrat employees.
The defendant suggests that this campaign began in 2022, when L&W renamed one slot title from Dragon Unleashed to Dragon Unleashed Link. According to Aristocrat, this was a “transparent attempt to sow confusion” with Dragon Link.
