Earlier this week, a Wall Street Journal article alleged that Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick had suppressed reports of harassment and abuse at the company over the years. Now, two of the publisher's most important partners - Xbox and PlayStation - are criticising the company, and 1,000 Activision Blizzard employees have signed a petition calling for Kotick's removal as CEO.
Xbox boss Phil Spencer sent an email to staff saying that he is "evaluating all aspects of our relationship with Activision Blizzard and making ongoing proactive adjustments", according to a report from Bloomberg. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that Bloomberg's report is accurate, and passed along an additional statement from Spencer.
"I personally have strong values for a welcoming and inclusive environment for all of our employees at Xbox," Spencer says. "This is not a destination but a journey that we will always be on. The leadership at Xbox and Microsoft stand by our teams and support them in building a safer environment for all."
