Call of Duty: Vanguard: There are no longer any signs of the Qur’an in it [VIDEO]


Activision Blizzard and Sledgehammer Games have pulled matches for Islamic players in this year’s Call of Duty Zombies mode.

The Qur’an can be called the Bible of Muslims, so it is treated as a sacred record. There’s no problem with that either, but they can already be criticized there if we can find some pages of the book scattered here and there in one of the tracks of Call of Duty: Vanguard Zombies. Anyone who is Christian or Orthodox may not even realize what is on the floor, and followers of Islam see this as disrespectful, and several have voiced displeasure on Twitter, and the hashtag #No_Call_of_Duty has also gained a foothold “on the bird community site”. .

Activision’s Twitter in the Middle East responded in a statement here and we can read the translated version. It sounds like “Call of Duty is for everyone. Last week, by mistake, content that was insensitive to the Muslim community got into it and has since been removed from the game. It should never have turned up in the game the way it happened. We deeply apologize. We will take immediate internal steps to address the situation in order to prevent such incidents in the future. ” (In parentheses, here we would ask, how was this in the content of the game after all? Would that also be some kind of covert religious distinction within the company?)

After a quick fix, the Qur’an was actually removed, but the TheGamer highlighted that nearly two billion Muslims live on Earth; nearly a quarter of our population (and outside the Middle East, for example, Indonesia, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and Nigeria have the largest non-regional communities). Perhaps this is why it could be said to be tactless that Activision Blizzard did not apologize in a major branch, but in a Middle Eastern one.

And it’s not the first case: when there were scriptures from the book in a bathroom painting on the 2009 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Favela course, a similar outrage occurred. History really seems to repeat itself…
