California AB1921 requires digital game operators to provide users with continued access or refunds if services are discontinued.
California AB1921, known as the Protect Our Games Act, mandates that digital game operators must ensure users can continue to play games independently of the operator's services if those services are discontinued. Operators must provide users with a standalone version of the game, a patch or update, or a refund. The act defines "digital game operator" and "ordinary use," and it excludes certain entities from its scope. It also outlines the information operators must communicate to users before services are ceased and prohibits the sale of unplayable game versions.
