In an update for the game released in November 2020, two in-game podcasts featuring journalist Helen Lewis were replaced after Ubisoft received complaints from concerned players over transphobic remarks Lewis made in the past, as well as a number of articles she wrote criticizing legislation that supported making gender transitions easier. Ubisoft said in a statement that the speaker profiles for the scripted in-game podcasts were chosen by an external producer that worked with the development team, and promised to perform background checks on any future partners.
