The realm between video games and reality seems to be thinning, with FIFA 22 and other FIFA products being the latest to make a radical decision related to the game's content.

Several organizations, including the real-life governing council of FIFA, have recently passed significant sanctions related to Russia and its clubs. While that decision was reasonably expected, the recent choices announced by EA Sports have hinted at significant changes coming into the game.

All Russian clubs and the Russian national team will be banned from all FIFA products based on the latest decisions. This includes three existing games in the series - FIFA 22, FIFA Mobile and FIFA Online.

While it hasn't been stated when the changes will be coming, there are also chances for more sanctions to come along the way. However, the decision is set to seriously impact FIFA 22 in the coming days, along with all other FIFA products.

All sets of information are yet to be revealed by official sources. Information like the ETA of the removal and the affected modes haven't been disclosed, but there can be educated guesses related to the information fans have on hand.

The most prominent name to be banned is the Russian National Team. The team has licensed individuals in FIFA 22, and the ban will have major repercussions among gamers in the European nation.

The second set of the ban will be coming to all the Russian clubs that play in the Russian first division. The ban is similar to the one recently handed over by UEFA in real life, which banned the clubs from all three European competitions.

Undoubtedly, the ban will be across all game modes, namely the manager mode and the Ultimate Team.

One interesting thing that remains to be seen is the future of the players
