Staff criticised the fact this detail was dropped during a "light and quick" meeting on a day they had been encouraged to dress up - and some were in Halloween costumes. Watch on YouTube Vicarious Visions was originally founded in 1991, and became part of Activision in 2005. Its prolific output included work on the publisher's Tony Hawk, Guitar Hero and Skylanders franchises, as well as Destiny 2.

But Blizzard studios are typically titled based on their location - making a switch to Blizzard Albany now likely. "For all of the leadership's talk about being more transparent in response to the lawsuit and resulting fiasco, the fact they decided to blindside us all with this feels about as far from transparent as you can get," one staff member said. Blizzard is currently embroiled in the ongoing lawsuits surrounding claims that the company was a toxic workplace environment, particularly for women.
