A majority of editorial and creative employees at IGN, an entertainment website that specializes in video game coverage, have voted to unionize with the NewsGuild-CWA. The newly formed IGN Creators Guild announced the vote on Tuesday, adding that the group will consist of over 80 employees with 87% of eligible members signing union authorization cards.
The group said in a statement it expects that Ziff Davis, the company that owns IGN, will voluntarily recognize the guild.
“Of our many goals, we first and foremost want to see IGN grow and thrive as digital media continues to become more and more tumultuous,” the IGN Creators Guild said in a statement.
