French video game industry union STJV calls for an industry-wide strike on June 25. The union is urging workers across the sector to participate as layoffs continue in the video game industry. STJV frames the action as a response to ongoing job losses and says workers should use the strike to demand major organizational changes within their companies. The union also criticizes what it describes as poor project management practices across France’s video game industry, arguing that leadership failures have contributed to the sector’s current crisis. Both outlets report that the strike is intended to be national and sector-wide, rather than limited to a single employer or studio. The call aligns the union’s demands around workplace impacts—particularly layoffs—and around management and organizational reforms. As of the reports, the unions’ planned date remains June 25, with participation requested from across the French video game sector.
