What is gaming in Russia like?

[Demosisto]

I may be living in Russia for a while so I have some general questions about video games in Russia.

Is it easy to find and play games? I heard piracy is a problem? Are consoles popular or is it just PC, what about mobile?

I'm wondering if there's any big differences for Russian gamers compared to US/other European gamers, like is it easy to find games online if I bring my PS4 and play Overwatch?

If any Russian gamers could share their insights that would be great!!

from what i know, russia is home to several games like world of warships, warthunder and the blitzkrieg series, but you can google other major titles

Overwatch is so popular no matter what you bring or where you go.

The most annoying thing is having your games forced to localize into Russian versions instead of the default English version.
