Ska-punk band No Doubt has filed a lawsuit against video game maker Activision Blizzard. The musicians have expressed their displeasure with the way their images are being used in the new video game Band Hero.
According to lawyers for No Doubt, the leading game publisher violated the terms of its contract with the group by allowing gamers to use its characters in the performance of songs by other singers.
No Doubt’s virtual musicians in the game can perform over 60 songs by other popular artists, while according to representatives of the band, she was only supposed to perform three tracks in the game.
The game Band Hero is a variation of the popular music simulator Guitar Hero, which went on sale on November 3, 2009. The American ska band No Doubt was formed in 1986, and their last studio album, Rock Steady, was released in 2001.
