tl:dr Report a Russian propaganda game on Steam!

I've checked every VPN server location on Mullvad available: Currently it's only banned in Ukraine and Germany unfortunately. At least this must be banned in USA (most Steam users).

I report this daily on Steam since a couple of days now. Release date is 24th March. Wishlists: ~8,000

This gained some traction on reddit already on multiple posts, but it's not enough now.

Help to ban it!

Original text: Hi everyone. I just discovered a game on Steam called "Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes" (AppID: 3902520).

As someone living in Kyiv, I'm shocked. The game portrays the bloody attack on Hostomel - a place linked to documented war crimes in the Bucha district - from the aggressor's perspective, calling them "heroes."

This is a direct violation of Steam's Sensitive Events policy. Steam usually bans content that exploits real-world tragedies or active conflicts. However, Support is currently sending automated replies to reports.

We need to let Valve know that using their platform for war propaganda and the romanticization of modern-day atrocities is unacceptable.

I’ve already contacted Steam Support, but they are stalling.

Please, take a minute to report this product on its store page.

Go to the steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3902520/Ukrainian_Warfare_Gostomel_Heroes/

Click the FLAG icon (Report).

Select "Legal Violation" and mention it violates the Sensitive Events policy.

For example:

This product glorifies the Russian invasion of Ukraine by portraying the attack on Hostomel from the aggressor's perspective as "heroes." This violates Steam's "Sensitive Events" and "Hate Speech" policies. It uses symbols linked to war crimes in the Bucha district. Such content is illegal in Ukraine and several EU countries (justification of aggression). I request the immediate removal of this product for promoting violence, hatred, and war crimes.
