GoKawiilRep. Ritchie Torres introduces Power to Players Act on game ownership
Democratic Representative Ritchie Torres has introduced the Power to Players Act, a bill that would direct the FTC to ensure consumers who buy video games actually own them rather than receive a revocable license. The bill cites NBA 2K25, which launches September 6, 2025 but is set to become unplayable after server shutdowns on December 31, as an example of the problem it targets.
