Assassin's Creed Shadows is facing censorship in Japan due to graphic content, particularly dismemberment, which has been entirely removed from its local version. The game received a CERO Z rating, correlating to the ESRB's M rating. While other regions retain the option to toggle dismemberment, the Japanese version will have modified voice lines. This decision follows a trend where previous game titles, like Dead Space, faced scrutiny over similar content. The director noted the game’s delay was to enhance mechanics relevant to its feudal Japan setting, with the launch slated for March 20.
Assassin's Creed Shadows will be censored in Japan due to its depiction of gore and has received a mature rating from the country's video game rating system.
