Sony And Epson Suspend Operations In Russia, PlayStation Sales Halted

Japan-based companies, Sony and Epson are the latest to act amidst the Russia Ukraine war. Both have withdrawn from the Russian market, putting further dent into businesses operating out of the region. Sony has halted sales of its popular PlayStation gaming consoles as well as its software in the country. The decision also means people in Russia cannot buy the new racing game, Gran Turismo 7 (GT7).

PlayStation is the best-selling console in Russia, and stopping its sales would definitely come as a jolt to people in the country. Suspending sales also affects the revenues for the Japan-based companies, which are mainly based in Russia.

Epson has joined other tech companies in suspending exports of its products to Russia and Belarus, as well as donating $1 million to support humanitarian relief in Ukraine. Apple stopped selling its iPhones and Macs in Russia, and halted its business in the region, likely to hit its coffers by millions. Microsoft is offering technical and financial support in Ukraine, helping the country’s government to fight against cyber attacks.
