Stop Killing Games has hit the US. California's AB 1921, the Protect Our Games Act, just cleared two committees in the state legislature. If it passes, end-of-life support for server-dependent games stops being optional.

The bill comes from Assemblyman Chris Ward, drafted with Stop Killing Games. From 2027, any server-dependent game sold in California would have to warn players 60 days before shutdown. And once the servers go dark? Hand them an offline build, an offline patch, or a refund. Subscription games and free-to-play are out of scope.

California isn't the whole US, but it's the fourth-largest economy in the world. Precedent set here rarely stays here.
