I do not think that is legal. if you are doing stuff in Maya for fun, it shouldn’t be an, but you may get into trouble if you are caught not using Maya with proper subcription, when you released your game you worked for many months/year.
If you are lucky, you may need to pay only for all the months of subcription fee you were using for free. If you are not, your game get taken down, & all the effort you made vaporised, on top of paying a fine or something.
Just not worth it. I say just use Blender, or the cheaper Maya LT, (or bite the bullet to use the full edition) when you wanted to make proper commerical IPs.

How can they even know, that he used Maya for his game? I sure that’s impossible.
