Select the correct answer. which statement best describes licensed characters?

a. they are based on real-life characters from past periods in history.
b. they are given human qualities, and star in games for young children.
c. they are based on preexisting media.
d. they are based on legend and folklore.
e. they are characters specifically created for a game.

The correct answer is C. They are based on preexisting media

Explanation:

We can discard the statements A and E because characters can't have licensed characters.

For example:

Mickey Mouse doesn't have licensed characters, in this case, the animation "Steamboat Willie" is a preexisting media with licensed characters.

We can discard the statements B and D because human quality can't have licensed characters and the legends and folklore are public.

I hope this answer can help you.
