In response to a $200 million wrongful dismissal lawsuit filed by Christopher Barrett, former director of Destiny 2 and the Marathon reboot, Sony has disclosed allegations involving Barrett’s inappropriate behavior with female employees, including that he engaged in "sexually charged" games like "Truth or Dare".

The details:

News of Barrett's ousting from Bungie initially surfaced last March amidst a broader leadership reshuffle. The plot thickened when Barrett accused Bungie and Sony in December of scheming to tarnish his reputation to avoid compensating him nearly $50 million due under his employment contract.
Sony’s recent court filings vehemently refute Barrett’s accusations, outlining a pattern of alleged misconduct reported by multiple women at the company. These employees, according to Sony, approached HR with complaints about Barrett’s unsettling written and verbal communications that allegedly left them feeling uncomfortable and anxious about potential reprisals.
The documents submitted by Sony paint a picture of Barrett as someone who often initiated contact under the guise of casual conversation, only to inappropriately push boundaries. The evidence cited by Sony includes instances of Barrett making late-night, alcohol-fueled video calls and remarks that were "overtly personal".
In defense, Barrett’s attorneys have shot back, claiming Sony's portrayal is based on a selective interpretation of communications meant to defame him. They argue that the complete message exchanges will show that Barrett’s firing was unwarranted.
