Activision Blizzard has refused to voluntarily recognize a union set up by a group of quality assurance workers.
The new union, called the Game Workers Alliance, was set up by the group of 34 workers at Raven Software. Raven Software is a subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, owner of the wildly popular Call of Duty franchise.
The workers asked management to formally recognize the union on Friday with the help of the Communications Workers of America labor union, The Washington Post reported.
A spokesperson for Activision told gaming news site Polygon that the company had declined to recognize the union.
