Mundfish’s website is down after a Ukrainian official called for Atomic Heart to be pulled from sale

gamepur.com:

Atomic Heart developer Mundfish’s website is down today following a call for the game to be pulled from sale by Oleksandr Borniakov, the Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation, yesterday. The developer has yet to issue a statement on the matter.

Atomic Heart is a game that’s been dogged by controversy in the lead up to its launch. There have been reports questioning where the game’s website sends user data and content creators pointing out how the game received a large amount of funding from a major Russian corporation. Mundfish has failed to comment on any accusations or rumors, and now things seem to have come to a head.

Initially reported by dev.ua, then covered in English by Gagadget, Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation, Oleksandr Borniakov, stated yesterday, “We also call for limiting the distribution of this game in other countries due to its toxicity, potential collection of user data and the possibility of transferring it to third parties in Russia, as well as the potential use of money raised from game purchases to wage war against Ukraine.” Borniakov is sending an official letter to Sony, Valve, and Microsoft asking to ban the sale of Atoic Heart in Ukraine. He also pointed out to western players that the fact that Mundfish hasn’t commented on any of the controversies surrounding the game is suspicious and encouraged them to ignore the game entirely.
