Rating issues
The game contains realistic looking violence towards human like characters. Although not depicted from close up, when characters are attacked there are blood splashes and they do respond physically as you would expect in real life to being hit with swords, axes and spears. Characters remain on the ground for a brief time when killed. Some of the more graphic sequences are shown in the cinematic sequences; which are typically two or three frames of still images. These include one where an enemy becomes dismembered – having thier legs cut off at the knees and also one where an enemy has their throat slit. Both contain stylised representations of blood spray.
Other issues
The game also contains use of the word ‘Bastard’ in an offensive manner.
