For obvious reasons, decorative content has been omitted from Battlefield 2042. EA removed the skin of a Russian combat helicopter before the Ukraine War.
The conflict in Ukraine is one of the most heinous tragedies that we have witnessed in recent years. The Russian invasion of the Eastern European country is grabbing headlines, and its ramifications are reverberating around the world.
A few days ago, the video gaming industry voiced its opposition to the war, and a number of corporations spoke out against the conflict and Putin's activities. Those ramifications are still visible today.
The most current game in the series, Battlefield 2042, depicted a fight set in the future in which Russia was present as one of the world's most belligerent forces, and this nation is one of the sides that can be chosen in the games.
Indeed, the start of the Ukraine War coincided with the launch of a new set of missions that allowed the Russian side to claim a reward that, at the time, may be deemed in poor taste.
Within Battlefield 2042, the "Grin Reaper" skin could be applied to Russian gunships, showcasing what has always been a tradition in the number of aerial combat vehicles in previous battles.
This refers to the classic shark teeth painting technique in which a face and mouth are painted on the nose of helicopters or airplanes to make them look like sharks.
DICE announced on Twitter that weekly tasks have been eliminated in order to prevent receiving this prize. Those who have already received the skin will not be affected. Quests have been confirmed to return next week, thus the relocation appears to be temporary.
The truth is that this isn't the first time the game has been involved in a Ukraine-related issue. He had to remove a skin of an operator some time ago, which referred to Russian servicemen who entered Ukraine without identification during the previous years' turmoil.
