The war of words between a group former employees and publisher has escalated with accusations of "secret interrogations" and "hostile work environment."

VentureBear has the latest on the between the two parties, in which a new brief from the plaintiffs accuses Activision of running a "police state."

"Both before and after Jason West's and Vince Zampella's termination, Activision forced the Infinity Ward employees to submit to secret interrogations," the filing reads. Allegedly, security personnel were hired to guard the exits to Infinity Ward's offices.

This is only one side of the story, but it's a pretty damning one. More to come in the weeks and months ahead.
