‘I think we’re in the fight of our lives’: Fired Rockstar employees and IWGB are confident the GTA 6 developer will be held accountable for its alleged union busting

Over 30 employees at Rockstar Games were terminated, leading to protests organized by the Independent Workers' of Great Britain (IWGB) union, which labeled the firings as union busting. Take-Two, Rockstar's parent company, stated that the dismissals were due to "gross misconduct" related to employees discussing confidential information, denying any link to union activities. As a result of these events, the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 has been postponed from May 2026 to November 2026 to ensure quality standards. A representative from People Make Games expressed belief that the financial impact of the firings and delays has been considered by management, but he remains optimistic about the strength of worker solidarity in response to the situation.
