How would this even make sense to be a legal issue
Giant corporations cry copyright infringement over anything. Universal tried to sue Nintendo over Donkey Kong

Didn't some asshole make Namco change the name of the Soul Edge series to SoulCalibur because he was suing them due to similarity to Edge Magazine?

Which in retrospect is kinda funny now since they both have the same parent company.

That's actually a lot more understandable than the others in this topic.

Yep. For years, no game could used the word "Edge" in their title because he would sue them, because he supposedly had a monopoly on the word in the context of games.

But then he went after EA for Mirror's Edge, and got his ass handed to him, and then quit the game industry in disgust/disgrace to become a minister.

Monster appears in games and sponsors e-sports players, they wouldn't have a reason to pull petty, ridiculous shit like trying to call infringement over the word "monster"

i wonder why someone spread this lie to begin with
