What happened
According to PC Gamer, Rockstar employees are set to hold a vote on union recognition in November, coinciding with the console release of Grand Theft Auto 6. The vote, which will take place from November 12-26, will determine whether the IWGB Rockstar Game Workers Union becomes the largest game industry union in the UK, giving employees a greater voice in matters such as pay, bonuses, and working conditions.
Why it matters for GTA 6 players
The outcome of the vote could have significant implications for Rockstar employees, potentially leading to improved working conditions, better pay, and increased job security. The unionization efforts have been ongoing for some time, with the process coming under scrutiny in October 2025 when Rockstar fired 31 employees, allegedly for leaking GTA 6 information.
What remains unclear
The exact terms of the recognition deal between the union and Rockstar management, as well as the potential impact of the unionization on the company's operations and relationships with employees.
