"Usage in video games and modern culture...Recent popularity has led to the song's inclusion in various media, including: Money Heist (2017–2018), the Spanish Netflix series prominently features 'Bella Ciao.'; Far Cry 6 (2021), an adapted version titled 'Bella Ciao de Libertad' is a revolutionary song opposing the fictional dictator of Yara; Hearts of Iron IV (2022), a choir version was released as part of the DLC By Blood Alone for this grand strategy game."

I'm not a gamer, don't know anything about the gaming culture, but this connection has been reported by several reliable sources, and on numerous postings here on DU. Like this one:

USA Today: "What was inscribed on the bullets?" sop Friday #14

Feigning to be a leftist mzmolly Friday #15

It is connected to a video game newdeal2 Friday #16

The inscriptions aren't leftist at all, apparently they're related to Groyper and gaming culture. sop Friday #17

Do explain how "Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao" (another engraving on a shell casing) is 'Groyper' related Celerity Friday #20

'Bella Ciao' has been featured in several video games. sop Friday #21

none of that ties it to the RW and/or the Groypers Celerity Friday #23

The song has become a part of gaming culture. Apparently, the shooter was both a Groyper and a gamer. sop Friday #25

I see that claim now exploding here on DU, yet I've seen no convincing evidence, just conjecture and nebulous projection Celerity Friday #29

In the absence of cold, hard proof, it's always a good thing to remain skeptical. sop Friday #31

There's a screen shot of a remix of that song Grown2Hate Friday #35

look at post 27, I already posted the whole playlist with the Spotify link Celerity Friday #37

Thank you! I was working off my phone and didn't know how to get back to get the accurate info; Grown2Hate Friday #38

Here you go: W_HAMILTON Friday #24

not convinced at all, look at that rando (& very obscure) playlist's songs (Huey Lewis is now a Groyper tell, who knew?) Celerity Friday #27

Thanks for bringing solid research and truth to these discussions WarGamer Friday #41

I am just going to step back and see where it all leads. If it turns out Robinson IS a RW Groyper nutter then I will Celerity Friday #43

You were rhe one that said you didn't see how they were related. W_HAMILTON Friday #45

I think there is a stronger case to be made for a gamer connection with some of the messaging. Gamers are not Celerity Friday #46

There are lots of gamers -- and lots of gamers that hate Charlie Kirk. W_HAMILTON Friday #48

Fair enough, however Spotify has around 700 million monthly users (likely more), and an obscure playlist with only 341 Celerity Friday #49

That's not really great logic. How many groypers didn't shoot him? EdmondDantes_ Friday #54

Well, it's looking like at least one Groyper did shoot him. W_HAMILTON Yesterday #55

Looks like he's a Groyper - Nick Fuentes supporter underpants Friday #28

As more facts come out and connections are made, it becomes clear the shooter's "engravings" on the casings sop Friday #30

We'll know but the press has sailed on that sadly. underpants Friday #34

Seems like a lot of money for a 17-year old to donate to a political campaign Prairie Gates Friday #18
