The new Call of Duty game has sparked outrage among Russians, as their country is portrayed in an unflattering light.
As reported by BBC, Russian soldiers are shown as "extremely cruel". It is noted that at the start of the game, the military shoots and hangs civilians, and kills parents in front of their children.
The game also features locations such as the fictional country of Urzykstan, which closely resembles Syria, and Donetsk Downtown , depicting an occupied city. However, the location Donetsk Downtown does not depict actual fighting.
A screenshot shows an abandoned stadium resembling the Donbass Arena.

Sales of the game are currently restricted in Russia, and many gamers and popular bloggers have publicly expressed their dissatisfaction with how Russians are portrayed in it.
Recently Call of Duty Mobile set a download record.
