Video game actors' union calls for strike against 'League of Legends'
Briefly

The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists has initiated a strike against 'League of Legends', protesting against Formosa Interactive’s hiring of non-union actors for a separate project.
SAG-AFTRA accused Formosa Interactive of attempting to circumvent the video game strike by secretly transferring an unrelated game to a shell company to avoid union engagement.
Riot Games clarified that they have always engaged union performers for 'League of Legends', asserting they have never suggested hiring non-union talent, maintaining their commitment to union practices.
The union called Formosa’s actions 'egregious violations of core tenets of labor law', underscoring the importance of performers' rights to join unions and fair treatment.
