Sad but true. Warner Bros. official confirm this information.

In response to your appeal on the disappearance of the game MK11 from PSN, we inform you that this game will no longer be published in the Ukrainian region. This decision was made by Warner Brothers.

The reason for this decision could be the inconsistency of the game with the Ukrainian legislation. Players believe that the game was banned on the territory of Ukraine likely due to Kold War Skarlet in a pseudo-Soviet uniform, which was issued exclusively for the Russian Federation.

The law, which may be referred to as “On the condemnation of the communist and Nazi regimes”, adopted in Ukraine several years ago, prohibits “public denial of the criminal nature of the communist regime”, “dissemination of information that justifies the criminal nature of the communist regime” and “production, distribution and public use of products containing symbols of the communist regime. “

I wonder why only this game was blocked, while other games, with more pronounced violations, are still on sale?
