Square Enix Implements Policy to Combat Fan Harassment
The company reserves the right to deny products, services, and pursue legal action against individuals who harass employees or partners.
- Square Enix has introduced a Group Customer Harassment Policy to protect employees and partners from toxic fan behavior.
- The policy outlines various forms of harassment, including violence, defamation, intimidation, and discriminatory speech or conduct.
- Harassers may face consequences such as losing access to Square Enix products and services or being subject to legal or criminal action.
- The company emphasizes that harassment disrupts the work environment, affects employee well-being, and can impact the quality of its products.
- This move follows growing industry concerns over toxicity, with past examples of abuse targeting Final Fantasy voice actors and developers.
