Rajan Zed, President hos Universal Society af Hinduismm og Hindu stateman, har i dag udtalt sig i Nevada, USA, hvor han viser en bekymring om hvordan hinduisme bliver portrætteret i Ubisofts kommende fantasy adventure, Beyond Good & Evil 2.

Zed udtaler: "Hindus are urging French video game publisher Ubisoft to depict Hindu deities, temples, traditions, terminology and concepts with respect and accuracy in upcoming video-game Beyond Good and Evil 2". Zed forventer at Ubisoft Montpellier skal følge hellige tekster ned til mindste detaljer, da han <em>"hope that the final product of this video-game would showcase the Hinduism concepts, traditions, objects, terminology and deities authentically; matching their characterization as portrayed in ancient Hindu scriptures, instead of giving its own fantasized or re-imagined version".

Ubisoft har endnu ikke kommenteret på Zeds udtagelser. Zed afslutter med at sige: "With seasoned and skilful professionals at the helm in Ubisoft, we did not expect any problem. We're just urging for more sensitivity towards faith traditions and careful handling of Hindu concepts and terminology".
