Skillz files suit against Voodoo as part of its ongoing bot battle
Mobile gaming company Skillz continues to fight alleged use of bots in mobile games, this time filing suit against Voodoo.
Paradise said in the company’s May earnings call, “Skillz will continue to combat the deceptive usage of bots until systemic fraud in our industry is eliminated. Creating a fairer future in gaming is good for consumers, our industry, as well as for Skillz.” According to the complaint, Skillz claims damages as a result of Voodoo’s alleged behavior: “As a result of Voodoo’s false and misleading statements and use of bots, Skillz has lost customers (including prospective customers) and has been damaged, including by way of lost market share, revenue, and profits.” As part of that lawsuit, Skillz pointed to alleged uses of bots by AviaGames to defraud players, which has prompted a federal investigation into Avia’s activities.
