Lance_87 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) Does this have to include only PS4 and Vita? I remember Twisted Metal 2012 for PS3, some cutscenes and minor gameplay elements were modified in the EU version, but are still there in the US one. And Twisted Metal Black, the PS2 Classic, lost the storyline cutscenes and some gameplay elements. Again, only in EU.

Mesopithecus Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 If we're including all games in this, then South Park: Stick of Truth was censored in EU. I know for sure that the PS3 version was affected but not sure if those scenes were ever restored in the PS4 version of the game. I believe NA got the full, uncensored version. As for Mary Skelter 2, I'm guessing it will be the purification feature that is removed, the game has already been out for a while in JP region (and possibly a couple of other regions) so it may just be the western release that is affected. A PS4 version of the original game is meant to be released with the sequel too, so I imagine if this censorship sticks they will remove the purification system from the original game too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeSplit Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Since you've listed Monster Monpiece, I assume you want all PlayStation games. There's Criminal Girls and Mugen Souls. Although, some of these games are censored on the other platforms as well. From what I've read, that "Nora to Oujo to Noraneko Heart" game is censored on the Vita and Switch, just not as obvious as the PS4 version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mesopithecus Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) Just a few other ones: Witcher 3 apparently had violence and gore reduced, and nudity was cut from the games release in Japan and the Middle East https://techraptor.net/content/japan-censoring-boobs-the-witcher-3-blood-and-wine Until Dawn has a death scene censored in the Japanese version https://kotaku.com/how-japan-censors-until-dawns-most-disgusting-moment-1727035058 Fallout 3 had a quest called "The Power of Atom" changed in the Japanese version, it involved detonating an atomic bomb and the quest was changed so a character was removed making it impossible to detonate the bomb https://www.gamespot.com/articles/fallout-3-de-nuked-in-japan/1100-6200975/ Last of Us (PS3) was censored in the EU so the online didn't feature dismemberment of heads in the multiplayer mode. Japanese version was also censored https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-08-05-naughty-dog-confirms-european-version-of-the-last-of-us-censored Grand Theft Auto V removed or modified anything related to sex and nudity in the game for Japanese and Korean regions https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=282051 Edited October 31, 2018 by Mesopithecus Added article links 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuntingFever Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) All of the Wolfenstein games are heavily censored in Germany, because of their laws regarding Nazi symbols and references. Wolfenstein 2 had heavy cuts made to the violence and nudity so it could get a CERO Z rating in Japan. The Last of Us has already been mentioned but one of the early patches, blurred out some phone number graffiti that apparently lead to a Sex chatline. The German version of Fallout 3 was heavily censored for gore/violence but was finally released uncut last year. Germany also received a violence reduced version of Borderlands 1, that toned down the gore/violence and turned all the blood purple. Borderlands 2 was pre-censored worldwide, to tone down the violence and gore so the devs wouldn't have to make muliple versions of the game. Russia ended up getting 2 versions of the game, one of which had some additional cuts to the violence but an uncut version was released a few days later. Duke Nukem Forever was heavily toned down for the JP release so it could get a CERO Z rating. The cuts include removing most of the gore (including dismemberments) and swearing, plus all of the nudity and some of the dirtier jokes. Along with the aforementioned changes made to the JP version of Fallout 3, the Fat Man Nuke Launcher was renamed to Fat Boy because of historical conitations. This change was made to Fallout 3, 4 and New Vegas. South Park: The Stick of truth, was censored in Europe and Australia but the cuts were never recinded. The only way to play it uncut is to buy it fom either America or Steam. Edited June 22, 2019 by DaivRules Fixed typo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuntingFever Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) With the exception of Detriot: Beyond Human, all of Quantic Dreams's games have been censored in one way or another in most countries. Manhunt 2 is still either banned or censored in most countries, even if you get the PS4 version of the PS2 port. The PS3 version of LBP 1 was censored at or just before launch, to remove 2 verses from the Q'oran that slipped in by accident. Overwatch was censored twice during the Beta (once to change one of Tracer's poses and again to remove a porn mag joke) and the changes were never reverted, thus all currently available versions are still censored. Fortnite was recently censored to tone down the jiggle of a certain character's breasts. Akiba's Beat is censored everywhere outside of Japan, to remove an extremely obscure reference to the KKK. Blue Reflection's Model Viewer is censored outside of Japan so you can no longer put the camera in a position where it can see up the girls' skirts. All of the Senran Kagura games have had the ages of every girl, either increased or removed in the Western versions of the game. Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni has had the same changes made to it as well. Fallout 3 was censored globally, because the use of real world drugs e.g. Morphine so all the real world references had to be changed to made up ones.

Redgrave Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I thought I had read something about Call of Duty: World at War being censored greatly in Japan because of the Japanese levels but I can't really find anything on it. But the German version of the game was censored a lot to where they removed some dialogue and I believe the swastikas. They even remove blood in some parts. Here's a video that goes more into it. Unfortunately the quality is kind of potato-ey so it might be hard to notice what they are trying to point out. Spoiler Along with all that, the Nazi Zombies mode was cut out.

SnowxSakura Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Mary Skelter 2 received a patch 2 days ago per sony's request to remove the purification mode, in effect censoring the game https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=zh-CN&u=http://dq.tieba.com/p/5931442348&prev=search PS4 Traditional Chinese "God Prison Tower Crimes Mary 2" was asked by Sony to castrate] According to the player's reflection, the traditional Chinese version of "God Prison Tower Crimes Mary 2" "purification" system process was completely deleted. According to Joy Baishi, who is responsible for the localization, the castration removal of the purification function is required by Sony @PlayStation , and the game of the PS platform will no longer allow similar systems, including the Japanese version. PS4 "Wisdom and the Emperor and the Stray Cat Heart HD" and "Miss Chennai" was intertwined and harmonious, and did not follow the previous classification operation. (The former does not have this "excessive light" over the grading regulation on Nintendo NS) Edited June 22, 2019 by DaivRules Removed off topic content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt the Dog Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I had a friend of mine who has the JP version of MS2 check for patches and load up the game and he has noted that the purification mode is still there, so it seems to just be for Korea and China right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
