In July, Steam and Itch.io removed numerous games amid pressure from payment processors like Mastercard and PayPal, focusing on those with sexual content. Developer Cara Cadaver's horror game Vile: Exhumed was banned from sale despite not violating any explicit policies. Cadaver argued that the game, which addresses themes of assault and abuse, contains no uncensored nudity or pornography. To counteract its removal, the game is now available for free on a new site, with proceeds from donations supporting the developer and the Red Door Family Shelter.
"The game covers topics of assault, abuse, and entitlement, and uses a combination of FMV and practical effects to create images as horrifying as the themes."
"There are a lot of intense visuals in Vile: Exhumed, but there is no uncensored nudity, no depictions of sex acts, and no pornography whatsoever - which is one of the justifications bad actors are using right now to censor games."
