Rostec plans to create a computer game with its “battle monsters”

State Corporation “Rostec” reported about plans to create a computer game based on the project “Battle Monsters of Rostec”, in which military equipment is represented in the images of animals. The product “should be guided by the cultural codes of Russia and have not only an entertaining, but also educational, and partly educational character,” the company said. There is currently a discussion about genre and platform.

In the concept art “Battle Monsters of Rostec”, the T-90M is presented in the form of a robot bear, the Pantsir-S is presented in the form of a rhinoceros robot with an air defense complex module on its back, and the Su-57 combat aircraft is presented in the form of a bird of prey. The first part of the project was presented in the summer, the second – yesterday, December 18.

Rostec believes that Western-made games distributed in Russia carry a negative message towards Russian culture. “The domestic gaming industry can certainly compete with foreign video games and produce a product that can interest Russian gamers and at the same time convey to them the correct national values,” representatives of Rostec believe.

Yesterday, December 18, at a meeting of the parliamentary commission to investigate “crimes of the Kyiv regime against children,” State Duma Deputy Speaker Anna Kuznetsova stated about the need to protect minors from video games, with the help of which, according to her, Ukraine influences children. On the same day, President Vladimir Putin statedthat games in which Russia and its citizens are presented in a negative light cause enormous damage to the country. The President called on Russian developers to create games taking into account traditions, with respect for history, “grandparents and parents.”
