A certain intelligence community has been hard at work minimizing the contribution of the Soviets to ending WW2. It's gotten so bad, I expect the next WW2 era first person shooter won't be having a Russian campaign this time.

The next? Call of Duty: WWII already came out six years ago and only had an American campaign lol

It was honestly pretty hilarious how hard that one went into "America won WWII" territory when previous WWII ones were pretty good about showing how other countries made the bigger contributions (even with them still having biases and propaganda), most of them had a Russian campaign too

Nah they'll have one but it'll be about all of the destroyer battalions of the NKVD with you playing as Putin's father burning Ukrainian villages with zero context in regards to why it was done.
