Playstation suspends all its operations in Russia, including the PS Store

PlayStation has suspended all ongoing operations in Russia, following the invasion of Ukraine by the country. In a statement published on social networks, the giant of the game stated that he "joined the global community calling for peace in Ukraine." This follows similar ads of a number of other giant companies, including Coca-Cola and McDonalds.

The fans noticed last week that Gran Turismo 7, the last successful title published by Sony, had discreetly removed from the sale in Russia. The manufacturer acknowledged, stating that sales of the simulation rider were suspended, as well as all "software and hardware expeditions" and "the operations of PS ".

While those who have a PS5 and a PS4 will always be able to connect to the Playstation Network and play their games, it is a strong statement from the largest play mark. Sony, as a whole, has also promised a $ 2 million donation to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and Save The Children to "support the victims of this tragedy".
