Re: Copyright claim issues with Star Wars Battlefront

@RakkuTheEpic6 While we in general have no issues with 'Let's Play' videos/streams featuring our games, please do keep in mind the music/scores used in the games may have different copy rights. In this case Star Wars Battlefront uses a lot of the original scores from the movies.

I would recommend disputing claims with YouTube, but if you wish to make sure please follow the steps in this article to request and clarify permissions for game footage and scores.

Let us know if you have any further questions!

Ah. In that case, I may just end up removing the music altogether in future streams.

That indeed might happen to everyone - I would recommend checking out the link in the solution post.

Star Wars is also a special case here regarding the copyright and very strict. The music used within the Star Wars Battlefront game is protected under Copyright. If you stream a live game or post a video on YouTube or other social media with the music playing in the background, you may receive a copyright notice to remove the online content.

Therefore I would recommend just turning the music off before you start recording / streaming.
