All money, minus processing fees for itch, goes to out of work game developers to pay for food, housing, healthcare, and whatever they need to make it through. Neither we as the organizers nor UVW take any of the money from the bundle. Game developers can apply here: uvw-cwa.org/hardship-fun...

Devs, pay attention to who is actually, practically offering support to our laid off colleagues. It’s not the companies, it’s not the ESA, it’s the union, it’s us.

CWA Canada will fight for laid-off Microsoft-BGS workers.

CWA Canada will demand laid-off Microsoft-BGS Montreal workers are treated fairly

MONTREAL (July 6, 2026) – CWA Canada, the union representing Montreal’s Bethesda Game Studio (BGS) workers, says it will do everything possible to help the dozen workers laid off there today.…

Because of our One BGS union, we have the right to negotiate over the impacts of these layoffs, helping secure stronger severance packages and better support for those leaving the company. We will do everything we can to make sure our friends are properly taken care of.

In what is becoming a stressful annual routine, Microsoft has decided to lay off thousands, including MANY of us at Bethesda Games Studios. With over 10k developers already cut from previous rounds, those at the top have deemed that insufficient in fixing their mistakes.

The Ubisoft Barcelona works council announces a series of strikes to protest against the unjustified layoffs, and defend their jobs. Faced with executive greed, workers organize. Mobilization is our only guarantee! 🔥 #ubisoft #layoffs #ere #gamedev

Our campaign for a union at Rockstar continues! Today, we've filed for recognition with @rockstargames.com, asking Rockstar to meet with their workers to agree a deal for good working conditions, fairness and a say at work. We await Rockstar's response. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Compulsion Games — an award winning Canadian studio — is reportedly at risk of shutting down. Once again, it’s workers who pay the price for strategic decisions made far above their heads.

Compulsion Games — un studio primé, basé au Canada — est à risque de fermer ses portes. Encore une fois, ce sont des créat·rice·eurs qui paient le prix des décisions stratégiques prises bien au‑delà d’eux.
