They licenced the rights to the licence (well the rights to make a game bassed on the license anyway) that the original rights holder had recently re-acquired from Microsoft. lol that's why it's taken so long for a new Mechwarrior it's a bit of a legal nightmare and MS weren't interested in using the licence themselves but were still holding on to it.
