DICE was criticised for the epic-tier “Lettle Green Man” skin of the Battlefield 2042-based specialist Pyotr “Boris” Gukovsky. “Alsiously green” was a name given to masked Russian soldiers who were wearing unmarked green army uniforms during the Ukrainian crisis. @EA @EA_DICE are you sorry for jokingly putting the Russian terrorists that occupied a part of my country? Why don’t we add some dunno isis or taliban units to the mix? http://t.co/YlugdMDaYy http://t.co/uuuhi49xwYL pic.twitter.com/NUBIwMOokR? Waggle-free (@Waggle_ua) November 12-2221.

DICE replied that the use of the “little green men” name was illegal, and it will be changed at a future update. “Today you helped inform us of the name we use for the skin in Boris’ Mastery Tiers” “. It is unintentionally referring to a real world issue, and it not reflecting our team’s values. It will be interesting to know that the name is changed in the next update. I would like to know it being brought to my attention. We really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The use of this name was unintentional and you helped us make a positive change in the game. Thank you to this site: http://t.co.xfFrcdTxW7.

In 2018, EA said it gave a Battlefield 5 Nazi unintentionally the same name as a real-life World War two war resistance fighter, before renaming the character. Activision’s Call of Duty series has been having similar issues. Infinity Ward renamed a controversial soldier skin in Call of Duty and Warzone last year after being accused of glorifying the police.
