Is literally nobody going to mention the fact the title of this post says "on October 7th" as if the game is about Oct 7th when it infact was released in 2022. The posters a liar, the article is a liar both to make this seem worse than it is.

This past November, the game released an update called “Operation al-Aqsa Flood,” in which the fighters paraglide into an IDF military base.

So every game featuring the M16 is "about" every event ever involving an M16. Giga brained.

I was just sharing where in the article it said even though the game came out in 2022, the update regarding the 10/7 attack released earlier this year.
