The publisher of Call of Duty: Vanguard, Activision Blizzard, is currently facing a legal battle against several US-based institutions surrounding evidence of sexual harassment and misconduct in the workplace. The most recent development in this occured only last month, as an attempt by Activision Blizzard to pause the ongoing sexual harassment lawsuit was rejected by the judge overseeing the case.
We recently rated Call of Duty: Vanguard as one of our most anticipated games of November due to our excitement around the campaign and the multitudes of multiplayer features. We also recently learnt more about the new Caldera Warzone map coming later in the year, and that Vanguard owners get 24-hour early access.
