"Activision QA Workers Establish Largest US Video Game Union"

TL;DR Summary
600 Activision QA workers have formed the largest union in the American gaming industry, organized through the Communications Workers of America (CWA) following Microsoft's labor neutrality agreement with CWA. This successful union effort comes after Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard and the subsequent layoffs of 1,900 employees. The move is seen as a victory for union organizing in the industry and a strategic move by Microsoft, as union protections are considered effective against mass layoffs.
