Rating issues
This game contains frequent depictions of graphic violence involving human characters. Violence can result in decapitation and dismemberment, accompanied by strong blood and gore effects. When characters are killed, their bodies remain on the floor. The game also includes violence against defenceless characters, who may be beaten and killed while restrained. In one scene, an enemy soldier is tied to a stake and burnt to death. He is seen screaming in pain, after which he slumps over as his body burns.
There is also violence involving animals. For example, a group of horses are attached to a bomb and ordered to run towards the enemy. The player must fire arrows at the horses in order to prevent the attack. The animals make pained noises before falling to the floor.
