Over 500 World of Warcraft developers at Blizzard Entertainment have voted to unionize under the Communication Workers of America (CWA), marking a significant expansion of organized labor at Microsoft. This move follows Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard for $69 billion and its commitment to neutrality on union efforts. The new union, recognized by Blizzard, includes designers, engineers, artists, producers, and quality assurance testers. Key issues driving the unionization include working conditions, pay, and job security. Microsoft has expressed support for the workers' right to unionize and will engage in negotiations with the CWA. This development is part of a broader trend of unionization in the video game industry, reflecting increasing worker activism and demands for better labor conditions.
