Overview

• Lego requested the shutdown of Bionicle: Masks of Power, a fan-made game in development for eight years, citing potential brand confusion.
• Team Kanohi followed Lego's fair play rules by offering the game for free and clearly labeling it as a fan project.
• The developers speculate the game was shut down because its high quality made it too similar to an official Lego product.
• The planned August 2025 demo release for Masks of Power was canceled following Lego's enforcement request on May 17, 2025.
• Team Kanohi has rebranded as Unmasked Games and announced Project Rustbound, an original title leveraging their expertise from Masks of Power.
