Although it’s a major success for Roblox, Activision Blizzard suffered a big downfall in the stock market. Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 are the major reason behind the company’s collapse. Activision has delayed both upcoming titles for an unspecified amount of time. This made many users angry, and they expressed their anger online.

Other than the company’s downfall in the stock market, Activision is also facing some allegations regarding its workplace. According to some reports, the publisher is criticized for harassment and discrimination against women.

It looks like Activision will have to first take action regarding these allegations before focusing on the stock market.
