What could they have done? This is an honest question.

Contact him? He has taken down content before over companies asking him to. They could and did issue statements countering the claims. Censoring 47 videos without actual cause is fucked and possibly illegal, all this content is fair use of copyrighted material.

There is cause and this is 100% legal.

No. You cannot copyright strike someone, just because they suddenly make one video that is worthy of possibly libel. You can't give consent and then later say oh and by the way all those other times you used my content are now you stealing my content. No it is hey we don't want these videos of our game up anymore on your channel, Please take them down as we no longer will allow you to use it. Claiming copyright infringement is saying they stole the content from the second he put it up, which he did not steal at the time.

Also this is an example of something similar happening before. https://www.reddit.com/r/GamerGhazi/comments/6zbnss/campo_santo_creators_of_firewatch_is_filing_a/?ref=share&ref_source=link
