Infinity Ward employees sue Activision for $625 million

Group of 38 developers allege publisher withheld $75 million-$125 million in royalties, bonuses, and stock options related to Modern Warfare 2 sales and technology during Q1 2010; massive punitive payout also sought; Activision says case “without merit.”

“Overall, the group of 38 wants $75 million to $125 million in compensatory damages for unpaid royalties, bonuses, stock options, and technology-related payments it claims Activision withheld. It is also seeking punitive damages of between $75 million and $500 million as a result of Activision’s withholding of the bonuses, which the suit says was tantamount to holding “employees hostage so that Activision could reap the benefit of the completion of Modern Warfare 3.” Representatives of an external PR company employed by Activision quickly rebutted the allegations in the new lawsuit.
