![]() ![]() ![]() The Epic Marketplace is the storefront where developers can buy digital assets for games made in Unreal Engine, but Fortnite publisher Epic Games apparently doesn’t verify the copyright for marketplace items. In a statement to RPS and in a post on the team's Steam blog, Archangel say that they’ve “always been transparent with their community about the use of Epic Marketplace assets.” They continue to say that only 10% of their RPG was outsourced in this manner and that “as a three-person studio, it was a vital resource… throughout the four-year development.” Archangel say that they purchased the animation packages from the Epic Marketplace “with the understanding that Epic went through the proper vetting and review process.” Archangel have now responded to the allegations of plagiarism, pointing to the Epic Marketplace where the team purchased the assets. But comparisons began to surface online showcasing mirrored animations between Bleak Faith and FromSoft’s titles, leading to accusations of stolen assets, as reported by PC Gamer. Indie Soulslike Bleak Faith: Forsaken launched earlier this week on March 10th, and as expected, it shares lots of similarities with FromSoft games such as Elden Ring and Dark Souls: an interconnected world, big boss battles, animation-heavy combat, and so on.
