By accepting this EULA, you are also agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of sale for the store from which you purchased the Game or activation key (“Conditions of Use”).
IF YOU USE THE GAME IN THE USA, PLEASE READ CLAUSE 13 CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH FRONTIER AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM FRONTIER.
If you do not agree to this EULA, then you must not Use the Game. If you do not agree, then your rights to cancel the transaction and/or request a refund are governed by the Conditions of Use. The above does not affect your rights in the event of the Game being defective.
Frontier Developments plc (“Frontier”, “we”, or “us”) reserves the right to modify, alter, amend, or update this EULA at any time in its sole discretion by posting an amended version at https://www.frontier.co.uk/legal/eula, so you must make sure to regularly review this EULA. If any amendment to this EULA is not acceptable to you, you may terminate this EULA and must stop using the Game.
Any continued Use of the Game after Frontier posts such modifications, alterations, amendments, or updates to the Game and this EULA constitutes your acceptance of such modifications, alterations, amendments, and updates to the Game and this EULA. Any downloadable content (commonly known as “DLC” including but not limited to character cosmetics, soundtracks, expansion packs and additional levels) made available by Frontier is also subject to this EULA and falls within the definition of “Game” above.
Where an activation key is required to install this Game and/or to access any Online Features, Frontier is not responsible for reproducing or replacing such activation code, and it is the responsibility of the original purchaser to keep this activation code secure. Frontier will not replace lost or stolen activation codes.

Any disputes shall be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts. If a particular jurisdiction requires this EULA to be governed by the laws of another jurisdiction and/or requires any dispute relating to this EULA to be subject to the jurisdiction of another court or other tribunal in order for this EULA to be binding and enforceable, then the local laws and/or jurisdiction shall apply, to the extent so required.
12.2. FOR RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES ONLY: In the case of any claim or dispute of any nature (including non-contractual dispute) arising out of or relating to any Use of the Game by a user physically located within the United States of America at the time of the Use of the Game giving rise to such claim or dispute and subject to clause 13 below, clause 12.1 shall not apply and this EULA and any claim or dispute of whatever nature (including any non-contractual dispute) arising out of or relating to this EULA shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of Nevada, USA, not including its conflict of law principles.

12.3. Neither the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods nor the United Nations Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods, as amended, shall apply to this EULA.
13. FOR RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES ONLY: DISPUTE RESOLUTION/BINDING ARBITRATION/CLASS ACTION WAIVER
IF YOU USE THE GAME IN THE USA, PLEASE READ THIS CLAUSE 13 CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH FRONTIER AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM FRONTIER. IF YOU USE THE GAME IN A COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE USA, THIS CLAUSE 13 DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
This clause 13 will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. If you and Frontier cannot resolve a dispute by informal negotiation within thirty (30) days of providing the other party with written notice of a dispute, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by final, binding arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration will be conducted in Clark County and the arbitrator will follow Nevada law in adjudicating the dispute. The parties waive the right to seek punitive damages and the arbitrator will not award such damages. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE ALL DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.
No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions. You and Frontier agree that any dispute arising out of or related to this EULA, is personal to you and Frontier and that such dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding. You and Frontier agree that there will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, you and Frontier agree that a dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
Any arbitration conducted pursuant to this EULA will be between Frontier and you individually. If the agreement in this clause not to bring or participate in an arbitration on a class-action basis should be found unenforceable, you and Frontier agree that it will not be severable, and that this entire clause 13 will be deemed unenforceable and any dispute will be resolved in court and not by collective arbitration.
14. Miscellaneous
14.1. We may transfer our rights and obligations under this EULA to another entity, but this will not affect your rights or obligations under this EULA. You may only transfer your rights or obligations under this EULA to another person if we agree in writing.

14.3. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this EULA and the Conditions of Use, the provisions of this EULA shall prevail.
14.4. If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under this EULA, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations.
14.5. If you acquired or Use this Game in the United States of America, you will not export or re-export it except as authorised and permitted by the laws and regulations of the United States of America.

Mod Policy
The EULA, Code of Conduct and this Mod Policy outline the conditions under which you may create and distribute Mods for use in Frontier’s games. “Modding” includes but is not limited to, modifications, customisations and/or upgrades to levels, characters, vehicles, buildings, saves, blueprints and maps, audio files and textures of a Frontier game (each being a “Mod”). This Mod Policy is incorporated in the EULA, by reference.
Frontier may in its sole discretion provide access to modding tools and/or platforms for you to create Mods (“Modding Tools”). However, please note that Frontier publishes games which may include intellectual property that is not owned by Frontier, and therefore Mods are not allowed on some games published by Frontier. For the avoidance of doubt, if there are no Modding Tools made available by Frontier (or such Modding Tools are no longer made available by Frontier) for a Frontier game, then you are not permitted to create Mods for that game.
This Mod Policy applies to all Mods created by you, including Mods distributed through the Frontier Workshop, third party platforms such as Steam Workshop, or as incorporated in updates to the Game.
1. You agree that any element of the Mod which represents, derives from, or is based upon the Game (for example characters, vehicles, buildings, settings, plot, art, design work, sounds and locations) shall be owned by Frontier, and you agree that all rights and interest in such Mod shall vest solely with Frontier.
2. To the maximum extent permitted by the applicable law, you waive and agree not to assert against Frontier or any of its partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, licensors or licensees, any moral or similar rights you may have in any of your Mods.
3. Provided that you comply with this Mod Policy, Code of Conduct and the EULA, and upon your acceptance of the Mod Policy, Code of Conduct and the EULA, Frontier grants you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, revocable, limited licence to install, access and use the Modding Tools provided by Frontier to create Mods.
4. Any use of the Modding Tools and creation and publication of Mods, is for strictly non-commercial purposes only, and you may not accept any fees or donations for your creation and publication of any Mods.
5. By making available Mods based on a Frontier game:
a. to the extent the Game permits other users to access and use your Mods, you also grant all other users of the Game the right to use, copy, modify, display, perform, create derivative works from, and otherwise communicate and distribute your Mods on or through the Game without further notice, attribution or compensation to you; and
b. to the extent not owned by Frontier as outlined in paragraph 1 above, you grant to Frontier and its affiliates, licensees and licensors a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable and perpetual right to use, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, adapt, transmit, broadcast, and otherwise communicate, publicly display and publicly perform your Mods without further notice, attribution or compensation to you. For clarity, this licence shall include the right for Frontier to make the Mods publicly available through other channels of distribution (for payment or otherwise), including incorporation of the Mod into the Game (including any DLC), any other Frontier games and/or marketing materials. This licence shall survive termination of the EULA.
6. Your Mods must not contain any material which: (i) resembles, copies or uses any third party intellectual property rights, including but not limited to any logo, character and trade mark; (ii) infringes any applicable law; (iii) incorporates any assets from other games published by Frontier or any other third party; (iv) has any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, corrupted files, or any other similar software or program; (v) is obscene, indecent, pornographic, offensive, defamatory, fraudulent or threatening; (vi) causes or may cause Frontier, its affiliates, licensees or licensors to be brought into disrepute.
7. You represent and warrant that that you have the full legal right to use such Mod and such Mod: (i) is your original work; (ii) does not infringe any third party´s intellectual property rights; (iii) does not breach a confidentiality or contractual restriction; and (iv) contains nothing defamatory, indecent or otherwise unlawful or which infringes the statutory or common law rights of any third party or any other rights. Frontier disclaims all liability to any Mod, and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Frontier and its employees, affiliates, licensors, licensees, contractors and directors from any damages, losses, costs and expenses (including legal fees) arising directly or indirectly from any acts or omissions associated with the use of any Mod which you create or make available.
8. Furthermore, Modding Tools are provided subject to the EULA, including the Limited Warranty and Support. As such, we do not warrant or represent that any Mod is compatible with the Game or will function within the Game, or that any Mod will continue to function if the Game is updated. You assume all risk associated with using, copying, modifying, displaying, performing, or uploading any Mod.
9. We reserve the right to suspend access to any Modding Tools made available to you by Frontier, or to terminate your licence for any Mods created or made available by you. Frontier is under no obligation to use or distribute any Mods, and you understand and agree that Frontier may restrict, remove or discontinue to distribute your Mods for any reason and at any time, at Frontier’s sole discretion.

Any continued Use of the Game after Frontier posts such modifications, alterations, amendments, or updates to the Game and this EULA constitutes your acceptance of such modifications, alterations, amendments, and updates to the Game and this EULA. Any downloadable content (commonly known as “DLC” including but not limited to character cosmetics, soundtracks, expansion packs and additional levels) made available by Frontier is also subject to this EULA and falls within the definition of “Game” above.

IF YOU USE THE GAME IN THE USA, PLEASE READ THIS CLAUSE 13 CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH FRONTIER AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM FRONTIER. IF YOU USE THE GAME IN A COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE USA, THIS CLAUSE 13 DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
This clause 13 will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. If you and Frontier cannot resolve a dispute by informal negotiation within thirty (30) days of providing the other party with written notice of a dispute, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by final, binding arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration will be conducted in Clark County and the arbitrator will follow Nevada law in adjudicating the dispute. The parties waive the right to seek punitive damages and the arbitrator will not award such damages. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE ALL DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.
No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions. You and Frontier agree that any dispute arising out of or related to this EULA, is personal to you and Frontier and that such dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding. You and Frontier agree that there will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, you and Frontier agree that a dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
Any arbitration conducted pursuant to this EULA will be between Frontier and you individually. If the agreement in this clause not to bring or participate in an arbitration on a class-action basis should be found unenforceable, you and Frontier agree that it will not be severable, and that this entire clause 13 will be deemed unenforceable and any dispute will be resolved in court and not by collective arbitration.
14. Miscellaneous
14.1. We may transfer our rights and obligations under this EULA to another entity, but this will not affect your rights or obligations under this EULA. You may only transfer your rights or obligations under this EULA to another person if we agree in writing.

14.3. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this EULA and the Conditions of Use, the provisions of this EULA shall prevail.
14.4. If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under this EULA, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations.

Mod Policy
The EULA, Code of Conduct and this Mod Policy outline the conditions under which you may create and distribute Mods for use in Frontier’s games. “Modding” includes but is not limited to, modifications, customisations and/or upgrades to levels, characters, vehicles, buildings, saves, blueprints and maps, audio files and textures of a Frontier game (each being a “Mod”). This Mod Policy is incorporated in the EULA, by reference.
Frontier may in its sole discretion provide access to modding tools and/or platforms for you to create Mods (“Modding Tools”). However, please note that Frontier publishes games which may include intellectual property that is not owned by Frontier, and therefore Mods are not allowed on some games published by Frontier. For the avoidance of doubt, if there are no Modding Tools made available by Frontier (or such Modding Tools are no longer made available by Frontier) for a Frontier game, then you are not permitted to create Mods for that game.
This Mod Policy applies to all Mods created by you, including Mods distributed through the Frontier Workshop, third party platforms such as Steam Workshop, or as incorporated in updates to the Game.
1. You agree that any element of the Mod which represents, derives from, or is based upon the Game (for example characters, vehicles, buildings, settings, plot, art, design work, sounds and locations) shall be owned by Frontier, and you agree that all rights and interest in such Mod shall vest solely with Frontier.
2. To the maximum extent permitted by the applicable law, you waive and agree not to assert against Frontier or any of its partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, licensors or licensees, any moral or similar rights you may have in any of your Mods.
3. Provided that you comply with this Mod Policy, Code of Conduct and the EULA, and upon your acceptance of the Mod Policy, Code of Conduct and the EULA, Frontier grants you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, revocable, limited licence to install, access and use the Modding Tools provided by Frontier to create Mods.
4. Any use of the Modding Tools and creation and publication of Mods, is for strictly non-commercial purposes only, and you may not accept any fees or donations for your creation and publication of any Mods.
5. By making available Mods based on a Frontier game:
a. to the extent the Game permits other users to access and use your Mods, you also grant all other users of the Game the right to use, copy, modify, display, perform, create derivative works from, and otherwise communicate and distribute your Mods on or through the Game without further notice, attribution or compensation to you; and
b. to the extent not owned by Frontier as outlined in paragraph 1 above, you grant to Frontier and its affiliates, licensees and licensors a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable and perpetual right to use, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, adapt, transmit, broadcast, and otherwise communicate, publicly display and publicly perform your Mods without further notice, attribution or compensation to you. For clarity, this licence shall include the right for Frontier to make the Mods publicly available through other channels of distribution (for payment or otherwise), including incorporation of the Mod into the Game (including any DLC), any other Frontier games and/or marketing materials. This licence shall survive termination of the EULA.
6. Your Mods must not contain any material which: (i) resembles, copies or uses any third party intellectual property rights, including but not limited to any logo, character and trade mark; (ii) infringes any applicable law; (iii) incorporates any assets from other games published by Frontier or any other third party; (iv) has any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, corrupted files, or any other similar software or program; (v) is obscene, indecent, pornographic, offensive, defamatory, fraudulent or threatening; (vi) causes or may cause Frontier, its affiliates, licensees or licensors to be brought into disrepute.
7. You represent and warrant that that you have the full legal right to use such Mod and such Mod: (i) is your original work; (ii) does not infringe any third party´s intellectual property rights; (iii) does not breach a confidentiality or contractual restriction; and (iv) contains nothing defamatory, indecent or otherwise unlawful or which infringes the statutory or common law rights of any third party or any other rights. Frontier disclaims all liability to any Mod, and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Frontier and its employees, affiliates, licensors, licensees, contractors and directors from any damages, losses, costs and expenses (including legal fees) arising directly or indirectly from any acts or omissions associated with the use of any Mod which you create or make available.
8. Furthermore, Modding Tools are provided subject to the EULA, including the Limited Warranty and Support. As such, we do not warrant or represent that any Mod is compatible with the Game or will function within the Game, or that any Mod will continue to function if the Game is updated. You assume all risk associated with using, copying, modifying, displaying, performing, or uploading any Mod.
9. We reserve the right to suspend access to any Modding Tools made available to you by Frontier, or to terminate your licence for any Mods created or made available by you. Frontier is under no obligation to use or distribute any Mods, and you understand and agree that Frontier may restrict, remove or discontinue to distribute your Mods for any reason and at any time, at Frontier’s sole discretion.
