The Independent Workers Union of Great Britain has initiated a legal claim against Rockstar Games, alleging the video game developer unlawfully terminated 34 workers for their union activities. The union contends that the dismissals from the Edinburgh and Canadian offices were an act of union busting, coming just as the workers had reached a legal threshold for unionization. Rockstar Games had previously cited information leaks as the reason for the firings.

IWGB President Alex Marshall stated the union would mount a full legal defense, asserting that company contractual clauses do not supersede national law. He described the case as a warning to other employers. The union first sought to have the employees reinstated through negotiation, but Rockstar Games declined to meet, leading to the formal claim.

This legal claim represents an initial step to resolve the dispute outside of court. Should it prove unsuccessful, the workers may proceed with a full lawsuit.
