Microsoft announced that it would cease all new sales in Russia after these reports surfaced. Microsoft announced on March 4, 2022, that it would suspend all new sales of products and services in Russia. However, it is unclear whether Minecraft has been intentionally removed from Russian app stores.

The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has also prompted video game companies such as CD PROJEKT and Electronic Arts to react. The sales of CD Projekt’s video games in Russia have been halted, but Electronic Arts removed all the Russian Teams from FIFA and NHL titles. Skin from a Russian helicopter was removed from the video game Battlefield 2042 last week.

As the Russian forces invade Ukraine, technology leaders around the world are reacting to the situation. Ukraine’s leaders have contacted top tech companies including Google and Apple to restrict their services on the Russian mainland. Apart from this, there are a number of companies operating in Ukraine that have either ceased operations or are preparing for future operations.
