Dark Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Microsoft has removed from the official store of extensions for its Microsoft Edge browser several illegal copies of classic video games from sagas such as Mario, Sonic and Minecraft, which in some cases had remained unnoticed on the platform for months. The existence of the pirated games in the official Edge extension store was made known after a publication of the official Microsoft Edge developer account on Twitter, deleted in a short time but warned by Resetera, which promoted the existence of extensions of classic video games. In the list of titles shared last Friday by the official Microsoft account there were several illegal copies of sagas such as Mario Kart, Tetris and Pac-Man, published by private users and accounts outside the proprietary studios. Most were pirated ROMs and emulators. Likewise, the Microsoft Edge extensions store also accommodated other pirated video games such as Super Mario Bros, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Cut the Rope, Minecraft, 2048, Flappy Bird, Fruit Ninja and Temple Run, as reported by The Verge portal . Currently Microsoft has removed all these video games from its official platform, although some of these titles had been available on it at least since October 2020, according to the aforementioned medium.
