Rockstar workers will vote on union recognition right around GTA VI’s launch.

The union vote will take place from November 12th through November 26th, according to an emailed press release from the Independent Workers’ Union of Great Britain (IWGB). GTA VI is scheduled to release on November 19th.

If the staffers vote in favor, “the Rockstar Game Workers Union will become the biggest recognised union in the UK games sector,” the IWGB says.

The text reads: “Following months of negotiations, recognition of the IWGB Rockstar Game Workers Union will be put to an employee vote lasting from the 12th to the 26th of November. The ballot will coincide with the game studio’s most anticipated release of all time, Grand Theft Auto VI, on the 19th of November. The terms of the recognition deal, agreed upon by workers and management, would give workers a say over issues including pay and bonuses, overtime, redundancies, flexible working arrangements, and generative Al policies. If employees vote in favour of recognition, they will have the biggest recognised union in the UK games sector.“
