"R6S is among the most popular competitive multiplayer games in the world, and is among Ubisoft's most valuable intellectual properties," Ubisoft claims, reports Bloomberg.
"Virtually every aspect of AF2 is copied from R6S, from the operator selection screen to the final scoring screen, and everything in between."
The title has been available to download from the services for a month, and according to Ubisoft, it notified both Google and Apple of its infringing nature.
