Video game strike: ‘Some popular games could be impacted’ | BBC News

Popular online games could be first to be hit by the video game acting strike if the dispute is not resolved quickly, according to a union boss.

Performers in the industry walked out on 26 July after a failure to reach an agreement over the use of generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) in development.

Members of union SAG-Aftra, which represents about 2,500 performers, recently staged a picket outside the offices of Warner Bros, one of 10 game companies negotiating with the union.

BBC Newsbeat spoke to Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, the union’s chief negotiator, to find out what it could mean for gamers.
