PWNZ have had a terrible 2022, alongside another Russian esports team, Outsiders. Both teams were previously known as Team Empire and Virtus.pro but were allowed to play under a neutral banner since Russia invaded Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The announcement from Ubisoft came in March 2022 via its official Twitter<\/a> account.<\/p>\n

“In light of the ongoing tragedy in Ukraine, all official competitions on our games portfolio in Russia, such as the Russian Major League on Rainbow Six Siege, are suspended. Russian players will still be able to compete in our regional and international competitions if they choose to, but will be required to compete under a neutral banner, and have accepted to do so.”<\/p>\n
