(Reuters) -Enhanced Games has launched an anti-trust lawsuit against World Aquatics, USA Swimming and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) for up to $800 million, alleging an illegal campaign to "crush" the event which allows athletes to use banned drugs.

The lawsuit, filed on Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, accuses the defendants of violating the Sherman Act by pressuring athletes, coaches and support staff to boycott the Enhanced Games.
