In what seems like a delightful trend that’s become the latest buzz in the gaming industry, yet another team from Blizzard has donned the union crown! This time, it’s the Story and Franchise Development crew strutting their stuff and joining forces with the Communications Workers of America (CWA) Local 9510.
Yes, you heard right! This is the second Blizzard team to unite in the quest for better working conditions this year alone, after the Overwatch team decided they deserved a piece of the union pie back in May. The Story and Franchise Development department? They’re the creative wizards behind those stunning cinematics and gripping narratives—basically the folks who keep your heart racing (or breaking) while you play.
What does this mean for the gaming universe? Well, it certainly sends a clear message that even in the pixelated realms of fantasy and adventure, workers are ready to band together and fight for their rights. So, will more teams follow suit? Only time (and perhaps a few more union meetings) will tell!
