Bethesda Games Studios’ Montreal workers are being treated especially poorly by XBOX and we won’t stand for it. Here are the details. If this upsets you let Microsoft know: feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/ide...

Microsoft and Xbox don't care about human lives: they don't care about workers' livelihoods, they don't care about Palestinians murdered by the military they support with their tech partnerships. Sign our pledge to boycott and divest from Microsoft and Xbox: nogamesforgenocide.com/take-action/...

Unions take legal action against Microsoft for allegedly mishandling Xbox layoffs

"CWA & CWA Canada have jointly filed unfair labor practice complaints against Microsoft alleging the company has unlawfully fired people without giving notice to or discussing it with the union as the employer is legally obliged to do"

Unions take legal action against Microsoft for allegedly mishandling Xbox layoffs

Went to @underdevelopedconf.bsky.social & learned about the "No Games for Genocide" pledge – I signed today, as a gamer and occasional game maker. As an individual, joining a boycott might not feel like much, but if enough people do it, even big companies start to listen. 👇

United Auto Workers (UAW) becomes first major US trade union to vote to divest from Israel Bonds. We call on unions across North America to follow the UAW's lead, & to join forces with workers across the country & world who refuse to be complicit in atrocity crimes & grave human rights violations.

We've just started the second set of sessions for the afternoon - it's still not too late to pop along if you've got an idea for a presentation! Current talks are on paper prototyping, union organising, programming game music and @nogamesforgenocide.com.

It is necessary that we as an industry uphold the dignity of those facing genocide.

The No Games For Genocide talk was one of the highlights of the conference for me. Check it out if you haven't had a chance!

Thank you so much to Game Workers Conference for having us! If you missed it and want to check out our talk "Press F to Organise: Game Workers Against Imperialism", as well as the rest of the brilliant programme of talks, they're still freely available to watch on YouTube ❤️

While i have a limited reach as an independent blogger, on my blog Demon's Worlds at aria.dog/demons/ , I edited all the game release data sheets to link to @nogamesforgenocide.com instead of providing shopping links, and i never mention Microsoft without a reminder why to boycott them.

Interesting that this article makes absolutely no mention of the @nogamesforgenocide.com boycott of @xbox.com due to @microsoft.com’s complicity in the genocide of Palestine. Would love to hear from @kyleor.land / @arstechnica.com about the reasoning behind this (rather glaring) exclusion.

Ars Technica@arstechnica.com · 2mo ago

From the No Games for Genocide talk: "And this is just a reminder of what we can accomplish if we come together. Something like a boycott, it doesn't make an impact when there's one of us, but when it's all of us working together, we're able to create something more powerful."

I just think about this advice from @nogamesforgenocide.com quite a bit... for no reason in particular

The embargo for the Forza Horizon 6 preview drops today. Please consider standing in solidarity with @nogamesforgenocide.com and not signalling to Xbox (and largely Microsoft) that they can count on your money. There's no right/wrong way to protest, but you can pledge your support 🎮

Humble Grove is the latest on the list of principled game devs to sign our pledge to boycott and divest from Microsoft. Consider following and supporting them and their work - and contacting us if you're a game dev who wants to discuss doing the same!

We've signed the pledge! Humble Grove will not be taking funding from or publishing on Microsoft Platforms going forwards. If you're a game dev, streamer, journalist or even just someone who enjoys playing games, you can sign too.

This wasn't an easy decision to make, but also in some ways it was. It's so important we show solidarity with the Palestinian people in whatever ways we can. I hope to see more game developers follow suit and make the pledge to @nogamesforgenocide.com

Banger episode alert: we have Meghna Jayanth on as a guest! She's here to talk about her upcoming game All Will Rise, and their very cool decision to break a contract with Microsoft over BDS. More news too - new Xbox (don't buy it) and more Mindseye mysteries! LINKS⬇️⬇️⬇️

New interview out! @jackmcgovan.bsky.social asked me all about @allwillrise.bsky.social and our decision to give back money to Microsoft as part of our support for @nogamesforgenocide.com. Good insightful questions, take a look: www.sower.world/all-rise-gen... #indiegames #boycott #freepalestine

Why a small indie game developer put Palestinian liberation before profit

A small indie game developer joined the No Games for Genocide campaign, even though it meant giving a significant chunk of money back to Microsoft.

Microsoft is the priority target for @nogamesforgenocide.com given the tech corp's ties to the IDF, & small indie developer @allwillrise.bsky.social recently broke contract with Xbox to support the campaign. I spoke to them about their decision & why progressives must take up more space in games.
