Lets not forget that this game has magic potions. Something that also did not exist in 15th century Bohemia. If those can get a pass, I think some dark skinned people can.
Where were the Muslims and Asians in Red Dead Redemption? It's well documented that a lot of Asians came over during the gold rush and there's no doubt that at least some people worshipped Islam even in the US. Why weren't there any representation there? And that's a much more mainstream series. I don't think I recall any Muslims in call of duty either.
I think RDR came out before nitpicking things in video games was really a thing.
RDR2 is coming out soon and I'll be quite shocked if things change with it. Tomb Raider definitely came out around when the nitpickings were happening (there some weird off base controversy over her being raped). I don't recall any Asian or Muslim characters there.
Lara's best friend was Japanese and there was a Pacific Islander in her group too. He returned in the sequel. ---
