Sony has stopped selling PlayStation consoles and software in Russia, making it the latest major brand to pull out of the country over the war in Ukraine.
Sony has halted a major part of its operations in Russia in response to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
In a statement shared on its Twitter account, Sony said it “joins the global community in calling for peace in Ukraine,” adding that to support humanitarian aid, it will donate $2 million to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and Save the Children. Sony’s move follows in the footsteps of a growing number of big-name brands to suspend operations in Russia following its invasion of Ukraine toward the end of last month.
As for the gaming industry, Nintendo said last week it was putting its eShop in Russia into maintenance mode. In an explanation, it made no direct mention of the current conflict, saying only the pause in sales was due to an issue with payment processing as its system was currently unable to handle Russian rubles. On Wednesday, Nintendo also said that “in light of recent world events,” it was delaying the launch of Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp globally, apparently due to the game’s content.
