A Far Cry fan spent three years and around 1,400 hours completely remaking Nintendo 64 classic GoldenEye using Far Cry 5's Arcade map editor - only to have Ubisoft delete it as soon as it was complete, thanks to "copyright infringement claims" from rights holder MGM.
YouTuber Krollywood painstakingly recreated GoldenEye - still the greatest James Bond game and one of the best FPS games of all time - within Far Cry 5 and had basically finished it, barring the two bonus levels, only to find them gone earlier this week. In a statement by Ubisoft (thanks Kotaku), the publisher explained that the maps "have been removed due to copyright infringement claims from a right [sic] holder" - meaning MGM, who somehow found out about the remake (thanks Kotaku... kidding).
"I’m really sad," Krollywood told Kotaku, "not because of myself or the work I put in the last three years, [but] because of the players who wanna play it or bought Far Cry just to play my levels."
