An executive of Electronic Arts Japan has criticised the Japanese video game ratings board for allowing upcoming action game Stellar Blade to be released uncensored while EA's own Dead Space was banned in the country.
Shift Up is reportedly considering a Stellar Blade sequel and PC port while also working on a new AAA action RPG called Project Witches.
Shift Up revealed there's about 98 people working on Stellar Blade. The studio confirmed they are working on DLC and IP collaborations for the game as well as a PC port and potentially even a sequel.
Loving Stellar Blade! I just started a new game +, can't wait for the boss rush mode & other updates including dlc.
Shift Up's PS5 game, Stellar Blade, may receive a PC port & a sequel, as the game's sales have exceeded expectations.
if they doing a sequel, in my head, this makes a ps5pro patch, almost certain
which is where il be playing,
He’s got a point. If a game is M-Rated, which is the equivalent of an R rating, I don’t get why you need to censor anything. The rating is the indicator of the content and the age appropriate. If it’s appropriate for adults… why treat them like children? 🤷♂️
definitely has a point.
but .. its japan. are we really surprised?
I don't know if the EA executive is going off the one close up of an arm being cut off in the demo. Maybe it's uncensored because it's the arm of a cyborg or it doesn't happen that often (didn’t see EVE dismemberment when killed in the demo) .
In the states there's a certain amount of swear words allowed to a PG13 movie before it is deemed R. So maybe it's the same in Japan for gore?
Ea Japan please make Knack 3
in the future
EA Japan :v
