Activision has emerged victorious in its legal battle against EngineOwning

In a significant legal victory, Activision has succeeded in its lawsuit against EngineOwning, a company known for creating cheats for various video games, including Call of Duty.

According to VentureBeat, the Central District of California's United States District Court has awarded Activision $14.4 million in damages, along with $292,912 for legal expenses.

In addition to the financial judgment, the court issued an injunction against the Germany-based EngineOwning and mandated the transfer of its domain name to Activision.
