September Players Alliance General Meeting - Players Alliance HQ

def how things feel in gaming right now 🫠

Gaming could be headed toward a digital only landscape. But what makes this move so bad for consoles and not PC?

Greedy corporations are gutting consumer rights and gamer first experiences, but the Players Alliance is gearing up for what's next — the fight for digital ownership. Our campaign is built around four main pillars: ownership, hardware, labor, and consolidation.

So I've recently become involved with an amazing group of gamers with a mission, getting corporate greed out of gaming. The Players alliance HQ We're currently targeting both Sony and Nvidia and in the past have had campaigns focused on EA. With Sony and Nvidia, we think games should belong to

“Boycotts don’t work.” This is one of the messages we’re seeing in response to the PSBlackout. What is the point of protesting the decision to phase out physical discs when most people are just going to keep playing and SONY is probably just going to get away with it?

Players Alliance members gathered for an IRL night of what unites us and what we’re fighting to protect – games! 🎮 Hit the link in bio to join our next community event. 🗓️

The Players Alliance will continue the fight to increase consumer protections in gaming – and here’s how. Together, our community of gamers, devs, & creators has what it takes to rally against corporate giants. 🎮 Tap in with us by joining our Discord!

i've been really enjoying the @playersalliancehq.bsky.social space. if you're a gamer looking for a way to fight back against corporate greed, please join in. it has been really nice to be around like-minded people, and people who love video games as much as a I do. the ea buyout broke my heart

If you'd like to be a part of the fight against corporate greed in gaming, join the Players Alliance — a movement of gamers, developers, and creators who believe that passion, not profits, should be at the heart of gaming. 🎮

Overwatch Co-Creator and former WoW dev #JeffKaplan speaks out about the tremendous greed of his corporate ex-bosses, including interference by billionaire investors and threatening to layoff 1,000 people for not meeting revenue goals. The kind of greed they talk about in the bible.

POV: Your CEO and his private equity partners call you for a Friday 9am meeting after your team delivered the most successful game of 2025.

With the $55B private equity buyout looming, EA is already moving towards what private equity wantsL cutting costs through layoffs and doubling down on live-service, predatory monetization instead of the ambitious experiences gamers were promised. #BlockTheEADeal

I cannot emphasize enough that these people are being laid off for failing to do things that are literally impossible

EA called Battlefield 6 "the biggest launch in franchise history" and sold 7 million copies in 3 days. But, today, they laid off the devs who helped built it. This is the company asking you to trust a $55B Saudi buyout and their $20B debt.

IGN@ign.com · 8mo ago

EA is laying off an unknown number of individuals from across its Battlefield teams, including workers at Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios, IGN understands. https://bit.ly/3OQgc9l

EA published a report about making every gamer feel "welcome." They're also selling to the Saudi Crown, which criminalizes LGBTQ+ people. Their own rules prohibit this. These two things cannot coexist. Gamers, fight back: actionnetwork.org/petitions/block-the-ea-deal-2/

Effectively, #EA has found a way to outsource their labor, overcharge gamers, underpay #TheSims creators, and reap the profits for their executives. Just a preview of what’s to come should EA fall under the control of private equity.
