A24 has officially responded to a wave of automated copyright strikes targeting Backrooms fan-made content. The studio clarified that these takedowns were an error, confirming they have no claim over the community’s creative works and are working to reverse the affected listings.
The controversy was brought to light by director Kane Parsons, who promised to investigate the issue after fans reported projects—including merchandise and indie games—being pulled from platforms like Redbubble and the Google Play Store. A24 emphasized that they remain committed to supporting the artists and creators who have helped build the Backrooms ecosystem.
