Level-5 has issued an anti-piracy warning on social media, asking the community to refrain from unauthorized reproduction and distribution of its game software. The Japanese studio posted an official notice with further details.

Critics highlight high eBay prices

Critics have pointed out a contradiction in the company's stance. Some of Level-5's games are being sold on eBay for high prices, with one example listed at 1800 USD (about $1,800).

The warning specifically requests that players avoid downloading or distributing unauthorized copies. Level-5's statement did not address the secondary market prices.

The studio has not confirmed whether it plans to take additional measures against piracy or adjust its distribution strategy. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between game preservation, availability, and anti-piracy enforcement.
