Rating issues
This game features frequent gross violence. Most gruesome are the ‘brutality’ and ‘fatality’ moves which players may perform on their weakened opponents. Almost all of these moves involve decapitation, dismemberment or bisection. Otherwise, characters may have their jaws kicked off, their heads ripped open, be chemically burned or impaled. The injuries sustained in these moves can be incredibly detailed, featuring clear and gory images of characters’ internal organs. The game also shows these injuries in X-ray vision, as skulls and spines are broken, or daggers plunged into eyes and ears.
There are also instances of violence against vulnerable and defenceless persons, in which restrained characters are attacked and/or decapitated.
The game contains use of the word ‘fuck’.
