Many publishers have officially stopped selling their games in Russia, but local gamers continue to find ways to get modern releases.

The release of Nioh 3 is approaching, and a few days before the launch date, players in Russia noticed that listings for disc sales had started appearing on Avito.

Some sellers have already managed to obtain "factory-sealed discs." At the same time, publisher KOEI Tecmo is not officially selling Nioh 3 in Russia.

As previous experience shows, Avito's administration promptly removes such listings for the sale of gray-market discs.

The global release of Nioh 3 is expected on February 6, and a demo version is available on PC and consoles.
