Take-Two Enforces Intellectual Property Rights Against Browser Version of Grand Theft Auto

December 26, 2025 - 22:54

In a recent move, Take-Two Interactive has successfully taken down a browser-based version of the iconic game Grand Theft Auto, asserting that it infringes on the company’s intellectual property rights. The game, hosted by DOS Zone, had been made available to players with the requirement that they own an original copy of the title. However, Take-Two contended that this disclaimer does not absolve DOS Zone from violating copyright laws.

The company is adamant about protecting its intellectual property and has emphasized the importance of purchasing games through official channels. This enforcement action reflects Take-Two's ongoing commitment to combat piracy and unauthorized distribution of its titles. By removing the browser version, the company aims to ensure that players experience the game as intended, while also driving sales through legitimate platforms. This incident serves as a reminder of the ongoing tensions between fan-driven projects and corporate rights in the gaming industry.
