Former BioWare employees sue studio over 'inadequate' severance pay

  • Seven former BioWare employees filed a lawsuit seeking better severance pay after being laid off in August.
  • The employees claim BioWare offered less than the typical one month per year of service awarded by Alberta courts.
  • BioWare laid off around 50 employees as part of a shift towards a more focused approach.
  • The employees argue the severance offered was "unreasonably poor" given their average 14 years of service.
  • The lawsuit also cites concerns about finding new work due to NDAs and recent industry layoffs.
