Garry’s Mod has announced that it’s taking down all Nintendo-related content after the gaming giant filed takedown requests.
The popular physics sandbox game Garry’s Mod is pulling all of its Nintendo-related add-ons following copyright takedown requests from the gaming giant. On Wednesday, the developers of Garry’s Mod made a post on Steam saying users “may have noticed that certain Nintendo related workshop items have recently been taken down,” adding that “this is not a mistake,” as the takedowns came from Nintendo. “Honestly, this is fair enough.
After looking into this most recent round of copyright takedowns, Garry’s Mod creator Garry Newman confirmed on X that he has “been assured” the takedown requests are “legit.” The takedown requests mean Garry’s Mod will have to remove a huge swath of Nintendo-related maps and other items. Over the years, player-made content on Garry’s Mod has allowed players to do things like turn Super Mario 64 into a first-person shooter or even explore Hyrule as Link.
