EA is halting sales of its games and content in Russia and Belarus in response to the invasion of Ukraine, the publisher announced Friday. On Wednesday, the company said that it was removing Russian teams from its FIFA and NHL games<\/a>, but Friday\u2019s actions go a significant step further.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have made the decision to stop sales of our games and content, including virtual currency bundles, in Russia and Belarus while this conflict continues,\u201d EA said in a blog post<\/a>. \u201cAs a result, our games and content will no longer be available for purchase in our Russian region storefront on Origin or the EA app, including through in-game stores. We are also working with our platform partners to remove our titles from their stores and stop the sale of new in-game content in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n
