    The video game world is in mourning. Game designer Leonid Stepanov has announced through his Twitter account the death of a well-known Ukrainian animator while fighting Russian troops in Ukraine. His name was Andrii Korzinkin and he made a name for himself in the world of animation after participating in the development of Metro Exodus. Specifically, he was responsible for the animation of various characters and scenes of the popular video game.

    Andrii Korzinkin worked for 4A Games before joining Remedy Entertainment, one of the world’s most popular video game developers. After Stepanov’s announcement, social networks have been filled with messages of condolence and outrage at the human losses caused by the war that Putin started against Ukraine last February.

    “Andrii Korzinkin has died while performing a combat mission in the struggle for Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity,” Stepanov tweeted. “A talented animator, an amazing person and a true hero. Rest in peace, friend. We all miss you,” finished Stepanov, who worked with Korzinkin at 4A Games.
