The Tagansky District Court in Moscow has ruled that the creators of the video games "World of Tanks" and "World of Warships" constitute an "extremist organization," according to a statement from the city's court system.
The court upheld a lawsuit filed by Russia's Prosecutor General's Office targeting Wargaming founder Viktor Kisly, Lesta company owner Malik Khatazhaev, along with the primary legal entity Lesta LLC and its publishing subsidiary Lesta Games Agency LLC. The ruling prohibits their operations within Russia.
