Overview
- IWGB says it has lodged formal claims alleging victimisation, collective dismissal and trade‑union blacklisting.
- Rockstar maintains the terminations were for gross misconduct tied to sharing confidential information in a public forum, and it has not provided detailed evidence publicly.
- At least 31 staff in the UK and three in Toronto were dismissed as organizers reported the nascent union had recruited about 10% of Rockstar’s UK workforce.
- The union is seeking reinstatement, back pay and accountability, saying Rockstar declined repeated requests to negotiate before filing.
- Protests outside Rockstar and Take‑Two offices continue, and GTA VI’s release has moved to November 19, 2026 as the dispute enters the UK legal system.
