Riot Games is suing Mobile Legends: Bang Bang’s Shanghai-based creator for plagiarizing Wild Rift, the mobile version of League of Legends. Riot has upped the ante on combating copycat mobile games after unveiling a mobile version of the famous MOBA in 2021.

Second Time Around

Riot is suing Moonton for the second time. The Central District Court of California dismissed a case in 2017 due to a jurisdictional issue. Tencent, Riot’s parent firm, then sued the developer’s CEO in China for non-compete agreement violations, and was awarded $2.9 million in 2018.

The Restraints

It may have ended there, but with the debut of Wild Rift in 2021, Moonton apparently provided exclusivity contracts to reward organizations that agreed to compete in MLBB instead of Wild Rift.

MLBB was released on Android and iOS in 2016. It’s similar to the League model, but for mobile devices. It features similar gameplay, a progression system, and marketing campaigns for cosmetics. The smartphone game has quickly acquired popularity and produced over $600 million in revenue since its launch. Despite the fact that Wild Rift was released last year, it still has over 80 million monthly players.

Many people would have shrugged at the prospect of Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch starring in her own solo film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe this time last year, which is reasonable given that she spent most of her time in the franchise on the periphery of the Infinity Saga. But ever since Marvel’s latest movie, it seems that she is finally getting her own movie.

After Such Success

The Scarlet Witch has gone from a modest background character to one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s most beloved heroes since the critically acclaimed WandaVision premiered in 2021, and it appears she may finally be getting the major superhero attention she deserves. The internet was ablaze with reports that Marvel Studios was working on a Scarlet Witch solo feature.

What’s to Offer

While Wanda will share center stage with Stephen Strange in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, it is evident from WandaVision that the Scarlet Witch has so much more to offer than a supporting position can allow.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will undoubtedly further her personal story, reveal more of her talents, and confirm her position as one of the Avengers’ most formidable and powerful characters. And with the recent movie released, fans have already guessed what’s to come and all we would be needing is an official statement on when and what the movie would be about with Scarlet Witch.

The sequel to ‘Dune’ will have a slew of Hollywood stars, ensuring that the sequel’s allure is amplified. Christopher Walken, a veteran actor, has joined the star-studded film and will apparently play Emperor Shaddam IV.

The Newest Member

Walken makes his debut as the wicked Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV, a role he played in the first film. Walken is the most recent addition to the sequel’s thrilling cast.

A Powerful Role for a Powerful Actor

In the Dune universe, the Emperor is the most powerful character. The Emperor provokes House Atreides into a battle with House Harkonnen after seeing a vision that a younger monarch will attempt to succeed him.

It’s uncertain how Walken will approach the subject, but his charisma promises to set the role apart. Fans might get treated to a new side of the actor and hopefully add in that flare that the role calls for, only time will tell.
