SEGA has filed a lawsuit against Level-5 for its Inazuma Eleven soccer games. Specifically, SEGA isn’t pleased with games’ functionality in which players can move character with their finger or touch pen.

It’s possible that the company’s Football Manager franchise has come in to play. SEGA may feel that Level-5’s series is in conflict with its own soccer management simulations. Officially though, SEGA hasn’t confirmed that this is the case.

Kotaku reports that opening arguments were heard on December 7. SEGA is looking for ¥900 million (US$11 mil) in damages, and is looking for the sale of all eight Inazuma Eleven games to be stopped.

Speaking about the lawsuit, Level-5 said:

“We are preparing our rebuttal and do not have any comments to make at this time.”
