According to the latest court documents, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) will officially reject Activision Blizzard’s proposal for an out-of-court settlement in September. The relevant settlement agreement states that Blizzard will pay $18 million to settle the legal dispute.
DFEH stated: If an out-of-court settlement is reached, the department may not be able to proceed with the legal proceedings against Activision Blizzard, because the settlement agreement contains the following clauses, allowing Blizzard to delete all workplace sexual harassment and employees from the applicant’s files Allegations of discrimination.

DFEH also criticized that: According to the agreement, people who have received compensation from US$18 million must agree to abandon their claims against Activision Blizzard within the framework of other claims. Earlier, some human rights activists had paid for the US$18 million. The compensation was criticized and pointed out that for such a large company, the compensation was not much and that it had not pleaded guilty to many illegal acts.
