Staff at Activision Blizzard-owned video game studio Proletariat announced their intention to form a union in December of last year, presumably to get some collective protection from management sexual abusers and bullies.

Earlier this week, however, Proletariat leadership shared an update that instead of voluntarily recognising the union, it will conduct an anonymous vote through the National Labor Relations Board.

Proletariat's owner Activision Blizzard has been accused of employing union-busting tactics in its negotiations with two other subsidiaries that have voted to unionise, Raven Software and Blizzard Albany.
