EA’s decision to ban Russia and Belarus comes just two weeks after ESL suspended the Russian team from Virtus.pro. Not just EA there are other sport organizers that have either suspended or banned Russian teams.
However, ESL later said that it would allow Russian teams and their players to take part in its competition only by using neutral names, that will have no team logos or nationals color whatsoever.
Even Ubisoft has also offered the same, they have also tweeted- “In light of the ongoing tragedy in Ukraine, all official competitions on our games portfolio in Russia, such as the Russian Major League on Rainbow Six Siege are suspended,”
