It’s one thing to Ubisoft, (or any company under capitalism) if it’s just a small few fascist who are racist against their current character choices. But if Ubisoft is risking facing actual legislation in a major market, or a ban. They are going to respond, because they would loss a significant market. They don’t want to lose an entire market where they can profit from.

In this case, it isn’t really about minorities, is this a little authoritarian, possibly on Japans part, but really, Ubisoft needs this game to profit as best as possible, which is why it can’t afford to lose a large market right now. With its low stocks of late, things aren’t looking good for the company. They are at risk at being sold off at some point.
