A legal expert says ZeniMax may have trouble preventing Oculus from selling the Rift, sales<\/a> following a civil verdict that went partially in its favor. <\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Update, price<\/a> February 24, 5:30\u00a0p.m.:<\/strong>\u00a0ZeniMax Media has followed through on its promise\u00a0to file an injunction against Oculus and Facebook. According to UploadVR<\/a>, ZeniMax’s injunction was filed on Thursday with the following recommendation:<\/p>\n

The company proposed Oculus be “permanently enjoined, on a worldwide basis, from using… any of the Copyrighted Materials, including but not limited to (i) system software for Oculus PC (including the Oculus PC SDK); (ii) system software for Oculus Mobile (including the Oculus Mobile SDK); (iii) Oculus integration with the Epic Games Unreal Engine; and (iv) Oculus integration with the Unity Technologies Unity Game Engine.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Facebook offered a comment to UploadVR calling the filing “legally flawed and factually unwarranted,” then confirmed its commitment to appealing the court’s ruling from early February in favor of ZeniMax.<\/p>\n

Original report:\u00a0<\/strong>ZeniMax Media says it will consider “seeking an injunction to restrain Oculus and Facebook from their ongoing use of computer code that the jury found infringed ZeniMax’s copyrights” following a $500 million verdict against Oculus and its executives<\/a> in a recent federal civil suit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
