Staff at Activision Blizzard have criticised the company’s diversity tool that was revealed over the weekend.
Known as the Diversity Space Tool, it was started in 2016 and has been in beta at mobile studio King. It’s intended to boost the diversity of characters in games, but has been criticised for belittling diversity and diminishing it to a checklist.
A blog post about the tool was shared on 12th May, but has since been heavily edited. Originally it mentioned the Overwatch 2 team was experimenting with the tool, but this has since been removed.
