Bethesda has filed a lawsuit against publisher Warner Bros. and developer Behaviour Interactive, alleging that their recently released Westworld mobile game (now available on Android and iOS devices) is a rip-off of Fallout Shelter, which was also developed by Behaviour Interactive for Bethesda.

The full document has been uploaded by Polygon on Scribd. According to the plaintiff, Westworld uses the same copyrighted computer code created for Fallout Shelter and that even includes a specific bug which has since been fixed in Fallout Shelter but is still present in Westworld. Below you can find some of the allegations made by Bethesda, which seeks statutory damages, actual damages, restitution and the profits made by Warner Bros. and Behaviour.
