Bill Text: CA AB1921

California's Assembly Bill 1921 seeks to protect gamers by requiring companies to provide offline versions or refunds for games reliant on online servers.

California is looking to protect the gamers who purchased these now-defunct games by requiring companies to either provide an offline version of the game or issue refunds.

Under Assembly Bill 1921, companies would also need to provide a two-month warning before taking down servers.

“The bottom line is that when a user is paying $40, $70, $100 or more for a license, they shouldn't then the next day turn around and see that thing just all of a sudden disappear from their screen,” said Assemblymember Chris Ward.
