Unable To Access The Game, Loop Hero Developers Allow Russian Citizens To Pirate The Game

JAKARTA - Four Quarters, a game studio based in Russia, is encouraging Russian citizens to pirate their newest game, Loop Hero.

This comes in the wake of the massive economic sanctions that have been imposed on Russia due to its country's ongoing invasion of Ukraine. Due to these sanctions, Russian customers are now unable to purchase games at major online video game stores.

Because, many well-known video game service providers such as Epic and Steam have decided to stop operating game providers and game distribution operations in Russia.

According to IGN, after this, Four Quarters has given its blessing to the pirate Loop Hero if fans are unable to purchase the game through legal methods.

They have even provided a torrent link to download the game on the official account of VK or VKontakte which is the largest social networking site in Russia.

Four Quarters says work on the game is still ongoing. They added that they are currently working on releasing a new free update for the game soon.

The studio has also thanked them for the congratulations they have received from fans during these turbulent times.

Loop Hero is an indie RPG strategy game developed by Four Quarters and released on March 5, 2021. The game was highly praised by critics and fans alike.
