Rating issues

Violence, in both game play and cut scenes, includes sight of characters being run through with swords. The accompanying blood effects are unrealistic, with the blood forming a cloud around the wound area and floating away from the body, leaving none on the ground.

There is use of strong language (‘fuck’).

The game offers players the opportunity to enter a casino, in which the player’s character can participate in Blackjack and Roulette, as well as play slot machines.

Other issues

This game offers players the opportunity to purchase in-game items using an in-game currency called AC. This currency can be purchased with real money and there is no limit how much AC can be bought. Some of the items obtained are randomised and provided in the form of ‘loot boxes’.

While the game is free-to-play, there is an optional 30 day premium subscription available which provides trade and shop services, additional item storage and access to other areas. The game also includes a shop which sells various items, including the premium subscription. Parents or carers may want to be aware of these elements. Parents, carers or other responsible adults should check to see what is being offered before making any purchase on behalf of a child. It should be noted that the game can still be played without the need to purchase such items.
