EA Sports has announced it will remove some player celebrations from FIFA 21 after gamers complained of "toxic" behaviour.

The gestures referenced were the use of a single finger to the lips implying shushing, and the OK gesture which was added to a list of hate symbols and is linked to an expression of white supremacy according to the Anti-Defamation League.

EA Sports said in a statement: "We were told by the community that there are toxic behaviours in the game and we wanted to make sure we removed them.

"We removed some of the celebrations that people thought were not the best idea to have in the game.

Shushing your critics is now toxic.

OK gesture is now racist.

These people were literally duped by basement-dwelling weaboos on 4chan.

If you're getting tilted from celebrations then you have zero chance at being even remotely competitive on FIFA

The more I get on the internet, the more I hate it. These “gamers” were raised in bubble wrap. So ridiculous.

Who's fault is that? The younger generation gets blamed for all kinds of shite that was not in their control to begin with... See participation trophies

The OK sigh being racist was a 4 Chan joke. This is what the world has become.

ngl, getting shushed by some likely 15 y/o in the weeklend league triggered me beyond rationality.

though it def had more to do with the built up frustration over such a wildly unpredictable game. and then the shushing.

i mean, i still hate seeing Martial's face in real life, almost exclusively because of how annoying he was in FIFA a couple years back. gave me ptsd.
