Logitech gives all 7,000 staff a day off for GTA 6

Logitech is reportedly giving all 7,000 of its employees a day off on the release day of GTA 6, which is a little over a week away. The company sells mice, keyboards and gaming headsets, so it has an obvious interest in people spending long hours at a screen. Even so, a blanket holiday for a video game launch is a notable sign of how the game has become a cultural event. It is also a rare case of a firm admitting that the office would be half empty anyway.
