That's what Take-Two does with Grand Theft Auto - here is one example: https://rockstarintel.com/take-two-strikes-again-with-another-takedown-notice-for-gta-3-vice-city-reserved-engineered-projects/ https://rockstarintel.com/take-two-strikes-again-with-anothe.... Worth noting is that playing these reverse-engineered versions of the game still required the original assets which would be obtained by buying the broken games on Steam. R* Games, which is owned by Take-Two, shortly after released the remastered "Definitive Edition" versions of the games, which today sell for $59.99, as opposed to about $2 per game before ($6 in total). So effectively that's what they've been doing, but no one in the games industry or adjacent can stand up to T2's legal bullying, which goes beyond this.
