Gaming News: Russian Government Seizes Lesta Studio – World of Tanks and World of Warships in Chaos!
The sudden incident raises questions, especially when considering the recent history of Lesta Studio. With Russia asserting its power, it appears they are not just playing games. After invading Ukraine, Wargaming, the company behind World of Tanks and World of Warships, split the CIS region to form Lesta Studio, possibly to distance themselves from any pro-Ukrainian accusations. This move was also an effort to address the criticism of the war, showing that they wanted no involvement in the conflict. Regrettably, this separation didn’t protect Lesta Studio from the fallout of their parent company’s actions. Reddit user Roberek elaborated on the situation, stating that Russian authorities have used pro-Ukrainian media reports as kindling for their legal crusade against extremism, which they define broadly to justify their aggressive nationalization efforts.
