Stalin needed unity in his people to increase motivation and the Soviet Union's war cause, something that been hard to do in Russia. One of the main reasons was because many Russians resented having their religion taken away from them.

Why did Joseph Stalin reintroduce religious institutions that had previously been banned in Russia?

During World War 2, Stalin needed to motivate more and more people to support the Soviet Union's cause in the war. so he softened the Soviet Union's official stance against the Russian Orthodox religion. Even though the Soviet Union was officially anti-religion, the vast majority of its peoples continued to be religious minded. Stalin wanted to create in the minds of all Soviet citizens a feeling of nationalism that would bring Soviet peoples together to fight against the Germans. One way of doing this was to reintroduce religious practices. People who till then may have hated the Soviet regime because it suppressed their desires to practice their religion were now able to embrace the Soviet Union completely and be willing to fight for it. The Moscow Patriarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church had been dissolved in the 1920s. In 1943, Stalin permitted the Moscow Patriarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church to be reestablished. Formal organized religion was now reintroduced in the Soviet Union.

When was modern warfare banned in Russia?

Russia has no formal ratings board and no games have been banned in Russia due to excessive violence, nudity, negative portrayal of people of Russia or expression of religious views of any kind because of freedom of speech guaranteed by the Constitution of Russia. Media in America and Europe have falsely reported that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, which features a storyline in which Russian "ultranationalists" take control of the country and invade the United States, was banned in Russia. Activision called these reports 'erroneous'.[31] The Russian version of this game was edited by removing the optional level (the player is given the option to skip the level at any time) "No Russian" where the player is given the option to shoot Russian civilians in an airport.Quoted from Wikipedia see related link
