An upcoming episode of the American procedural drama Law & Order: Special Victims Unit will explore the harassment of a female developer at a gaming convention.

In "Intimidation Game", Ice-T's character Odafin "Fin" Tutuola will investigate an assault against Raina Punjabi, a female developer who is being harassed, intimidated and threatened by elements of the "male-dominated gaming community".

The episode draws inspiration from the kind of anonymous harassment that is now regularly aimed at female game developers and critics.

"Intimidation Game" will air in the US on February 11.
