Activision confirms that the controversial âNo Russianâ mission in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 doesnât appear in the Russian version of the game, as they nip rumors of Russian bans in the bud.
The âNo Russianâ scene in Modern Warfare 2 has players working undercover with a terrorist organization as they open fire on the crowd at a Russian airport. In most versions of the game this scene is skippable, but it doesnât appear at all in the Russian PC version of the game. Speaking to Eurogamer, an Activision representative explains why.
Probably a wise move on Activisionâs part. In the same statement, the company also addressed rumors that the console versions of Modern Warfare 2 were being pulled from Russian shelves in order to remove the scene, explaining that no console versions of the game have been released in the country.
