Paul Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) I guess we're going to have to wait until September for the censored English version then. Edited April 24, 2019 by Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigma999 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) I was inclined to get Full Body but the censorship of the Western version puts me off , i already own and plat Catherine on PS3 , so not sure if it's worth the effort of buying on PS4 tbh .

Eraezr Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 It would be ludicrous if the Chinese version is not censored, given that country's reputation for content curation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn't necessarily mean it will release in Mainland China. Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Malaysia will all get the Asian version with Chinese subtitles.

There will almost certainly be audio changes for the English dub, if that voice actor tweet from a few weeks back is anything to go by but other that - it's unknown as to exactly what will and won't be censored.

One of the ending scenes in Full Body has been deemed transphobic and will be censored here. It's a spoiler, so enter at your own risk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any of the victims in Sony's censorship vendetta have had nudity. Or at least not the majority. Though this one is probably related to the PC babies whinging rather than nudity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I don't want to get anyone's hopes up too much but an Asia/English version has just shown up on both Play-Asia.com and the Asian PS Store so there's now at least some hope of us getting an uncensored release in English .

Zenpai Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 For those that have played the PS3 version, does this censorship affect content that was already in the original, or does it only affect new content present in the Full Body edition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most, if not all of it, concerns Eric(a), a character from original game, biological man who changed his gender. It's impossible to find out what exactly was censored, but interviews suggest 4 Eric(a) points. 1. His name was changed in the game credits. 2. Allegedly, every instance of Eric was changed into Erica (even when he was still a man and called himself Eric). 3. References made by other characters to him being a man were removed. 4. Possibly, an ending involving Eric was altered, but it's not confirmed. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2019/05/24/atlus-catherine-full-body-transphobic-content-remove/ https://www.themix.net/2019/05/catherine-full-body-western-release-to-feature-script-changes-regarding-transgender-character/ The original game is uncensored, as well as JP Full Body. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the explanation. I played the PS3 original, so I was just curious. So if I understood correctly, then content that was uncensored on the PS3 version and that carried over to Full Body is now censored? Well, that sucks. I was already pretty sure that I wasn't going to buy the new version since I already have the original and ATLUS re-releases aren't usually all that good (even though it does come with dual audio), but this news pretty much just cemented it for me.

HuntingFever Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Since the Asia English version is out tomorrow, I have a couple of questions about it : 1: Is it confirmed this release is uncensored? 2: Does it have its own list or does it share one of the others?
