Silicon Knights must destroy games built with Unreal Engine

Canadian developer Silicon Knights must destroy unsold copies of several titles after losing a legal battle with Epic Games.

Silicon Knights was ordered to pay $4.45million USD to Epic Games back in May for breaching an Unreal Engine licensing agreement.

Now documents posted on NeoGAF reveal that source code for X-Men: Destiny, Too Human, The Box/ Ritualyst, The Sandman and Siren in the Maelstrom must be destroyed by 10 December 2012.

It was recently reported that Silicon Knights was just clinging onto life as a developer, with only five staff remaining after X-Men: Destiny was unsuccessful.
