Only TechPowerUp has this. It is here on that single source, so read it as one outlet's reporting until somebody else confirms it.

What happened

Logitech employees are getting a day off just to play video games. The company has announced "Logi Game Day," which it calls the first company-wide gaming day in its history, pitched as a way to recognize the cognitive and professional benefits of gaming. Logitech G will host a streaming event at its Americas headquarters in San Jose on November 19, which happens to be the day GTA 6 launches on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Logitech G general manager Robin Piispanen will host it. Employees aren't locked into GTA 6, though Piispanen does name-drop it in the press release alongside Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and Forza.
