Bethesda Loses ‘Scrolls’ Case

October 18, 2011 by Mat Growcott

Mojang wins their legal battle with Bethesda, fans equate it to the fall of the Emperor in Star Wars

If you haven't read our rather interesting account on why Bethesda aren't all baby killing, puppy squashing Ku Klux Klan members, you might have reason to celebrate right now. Notch, spokesperson for Mojang and internet hero, tweeted a couple of hours ago to say that all had gone rather well concerning the 'Scrolls' trademark they've been fighting over for the last few months. 

"We won the interim injunction! We can keep using the name "Scrolls". ZeniMax/Bethesda can still appeal the ruling, but I'm very happy. :D"

It's unlikely to go much further than this, Bethesda just needed to prove that they can and will defend the 'Scrolls' brand, even in the face of consumer backlash. And let's face it, Notch tried his best to get as much support for his cause as possible – the Quake 3 match that everybody seemed to think was such a great way to sort out a legal battle being the most obvious.
