Multiple Russian blogs have reported that Russian YouTuber Kirill Fyodorov got into a tiff with Gaijin Entertainment over his coverage of the game and ownership of the channel. Producer Pavel Kulikov had Fyodorov’s channel taken away, citing copyright infringements, and subsequently attempted on several occasions to coerce Fyodorov to sign a contract with an NDA and an agreement to produce only positive videos on War Thunder.
Fyodorov says he refused Kulikov’s demands, and after some back-and-forth between the pair, Gaijin CEO Anton Yudintsev apparently stepped in to put an end to Kulikov’s actions. Kulikov was fired from the company, and Fyodorov’s YouTube channel was restored with an apology from the studio.
