A group of Activision Blizzard Inc. video game testers in New York are petitioning to unionize, expanding labor’s foothold in the gaming industry.
Employees at the Activision subsidiary Blizzard Albany are organizing with the Communications Workers of America and asking the US labor board to hold a unionization election, the group said in a statement Tuesday. CWA prevailed in a May election among staff at Activision’s Raven Software arm, the first such win at a US-listed game company.
