Watch A Dozen Gamers ‘Raid’ EA To Block Saudi Takeover In Protest Outside The Battlefield Publisher’s Headquarters

Gamers and the Players Alliance staged a livestreamed protest outside EA’s Redwood City headquarters on May 11.

They delivered petition signatures and signs opposing EA’s planned Saudi-led takeover, layoffs, and microtransaction-heavy monetization.

The group urged lawmakers to step in, arguing the deal could weaken worker protections and corporate accountability.

The backlash highlights broader concern over foreign control of major game publishers and the future of inclusive titles like The Sims and Mass Effect.
