![]() ![]() Many of Atomic Hearts player base have admitted to feeling some kind of way whenever the twins mount Nechayev’s dying body and puncture it with holes. The twins feature prominently in Atomic Heart’s advertisements, box art, and trailers. The twins, who serve as one the bodyguards for scientist Dmitry Sechenov, are highly evolved humanoid robots with ballerina-esque body types, crown braid hairstyles, featureless faces, and red stars on their foreheads. Next up on the list of Atomic Heart controversies is the eerie resemblance its female robot twins have with Yulia Tymoshenko, the leader of the Batkivshchyna party in Ukraine. “We also want to emphasise that the game developers have not publicly condemned the Putin regime and the bloody war that Russia has unleashed against Ukraine.” The robot twins’ likeness “We also urge limiting the distribution of this game in other countries due to its toxicity, potential data collection of users, and the potential use of money raised from game purchases to conduct a war against Ukraine,” Bornyakov wrote in a statement on Dev.au (translated to English by PCGamesN). According to Video Games Chronicle, Alex Bornyakov, Ukraine’s deputy minister of digital transformation, asked Sony, Microsoft, and Valve to remove Atomic Heart from Ukraine’s digital stores. While Mundfish has remained vague over its stance on the war in Ukraine, the Ukrainian government wants Atomic Heart pulled from its online storefronts.

When Eurogamer asked about GEM Capital’s level of involvement with Atomic Heart, Mundfish did not provide a comment. Mundfish’s unclear stance on the war in Ukraine isn’t helped by the fact that the financial success of Atomic Heart will likely benefit Russia via Mundfish’s investor, GEM Capital.
