Resident Evil creator thought the studio he helped form "would be safe as long as they continued to make Hi-Fi Rush games," but Microsoft shut it down anyway (www.gamesradar.com)

Imo work hours should result in equity and a say in how the company is run. Maybe a split like half the votes come from shareholders and half comes from the workers. And if the company does share buybacks, the worker share increases.

Or unionize and make it known that if the company is purchased, the union will walk out or start their own.

A union wouldn't actually help in this case since MS laid everyone off anyway. They only cared about keeping the IP and wouldn't have really cared about striking workers. Antitrust laws are supposed to stop industry consolidation due to a large competitor buying a smaller one, but courts have been doing their best to make them unenforceable.
