1,900 Blizzard Developers Just Won A Union Contract Full Of Protections For AI, Layoffs, And More

Between this and the return of HOTS I’d say things are looking good for Blizzard

Good. More of that. MUCH more of that!

Let’s hope actual progress comes from this.

Finally some positive news in 2026 for game developers.

If the whole industry woke up and went union things would really change.

All tech companies would implode rapidly if all their talent evaporated and they couldn’t hire anyone useful. AI isn’t enough on its own yet to be a solution, and right now is the best time to do it before it might be too late.
