Regarding thes companies, I recently completed Metro Exodus, am trying to get into STALKER Call of Pripyat, and have been playing World of Warships for a couple of years, complaining about it’s game balancing mechanisms. 
Looks like Wargaming. publisher of both World of Tanks and World of Warships, a PVP based game featuring WW1 and WWII aircraft and ships is leaving Belarus completely in light of the ongoing Russia Ukraine Conflict.
Good...
Wargaming, the developer of the online military games World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes, has announced that it will pull out of operations in Russia and Belarus and move to close its studios in the two countries following the invasion of Ukraine.
While many games companies have withdrawn from the Russian and Belarusian markets in recent weeks, this move is particularly significant. Wargaming, now headquartered in Cyprus, was originally a Belarusian company and, until now, has maintained a major studio in the Belarusian capital Minsk.
In a statement posted to LinkedIn, Wargaming said it had started the process of closing its Minsk studio. It also said that, effective March 31, it had transferred the business of operating its games in Russia and Belarus to Lesta Studio, a Russian developer that Wargaming acquired in 2011, but which “is no longer affiliated with Wargaming,” according to the statement. The games will remain available in Russia and Belarus under Lesta’s ownership.
“The company will not profit from this process either today or going forward. Much to the contrary we expect to suffer substantial losses as a direct result of this decision,” the statement said. World of Tanks is a very popular game in Russia.
Wargaming also owns a studio in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and employs over 500 people there. In February, Wargaming fired creative director Sergey Burkatovskiy after he made a statement in support of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on Facebook. Burkatovskiy’s stance “categorically does not reflect the position of the company,” Wargaming told PC Gamer.
In Addition, GSC Game World based in Ukrain,e developer of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series (a post- armageddon game) is leaving Ukraine moving/moved to the Czech Republic.
A4 Games Developer of the Metro Series a Post Armageddon Game, formerly a Ukrainian, country previously moved to Malta.
