SAG-AFTRA released the following statement today regarding The Game Awards nominations:

“SAG-AFTRA congratulates the talented performers whose work has been recognized with a Game Awards nomination, along with the brilliant developers whose creativity and hard work fuel this industry we love so much. 

“At this time of celebration, it’s important not to lose sight of the fact that thousands of video game voice and movement performers have been on strike for 116 days, following more than 18 months of negotiations which failed to produce an agreement that includes fundamental consent, compensation and transparency guardrails around the use of A.I.

“We are grateful to all those who have shown their support for our striking video game performers, including the 130 games who have signed interim and tiered-budget agreements, the amazing community of fans and allies, and our union siblings here and abroad.”
