Rockstar developers to formally unionize ahead of legal battle with the company

After Rockstar fired 31 developers last year, it has been involved in a legal case over alleged union busting, led by the Independent Workers’ Union of Great Britain (IWGB). Now, Rockstar’s developers announced their own union, the Rockstar Games Workers Union (RGWU), which will participate in the lawsuit.

That is according to Rockstar Intel, which writes that the union’s formal announcement came today via a video published by IWGB. This new union will be a part of the IWGB and apparently be the one to face Rockstar in court over alleged union-busting in relation to Rockstar’s firing of 31 developers last year.
