Bethesda Game Studios union workers are planning to protest outside its four studio locations next week in response to the layoff of nearly 450 of its members across ZeniMax.

OneBGS, the CWA-affiliated Bethesda Game Studios union, is planning protests outside Bethesda offices located in Montreal, Rockville, Maryland, and Austin on July 15, it said.

The protests follow 440 union member job cuts across Bethesda and ZeniMax this week, including around 100 layoffs at Doom maker Id Software, and more than 200 at The Elder Scrolls Online studio ZeniMax Online.

In a statement, OneBGS said (via Kotaku) it wants to show Xbox management “we mean business” so that they will “think twice before ever attempting something like this again”.
