German version of Silent Hunter 5 gets recalled

If you have the Collector’s Edition of Silent Hunter 5 you may have noticed some “offendeing World War II-related symbols” in the bonus content. This may seem fine and well considering the game is a submarine sim, but not in Germany. Ubisoft has issued a recall for the German version of this game due to the above mentioned problem and the fact that it violates German law.
While there was no mention of what exactly these symbols were we’re going to go out on a limb and assume they were swastikas.
