Stellar Blade ‘uncensored for all countries’ despite usual strict Japanese rules

Stellar Blade developers Shift Up have today confirmed its action-adventure title will be ‘uncensored [in] all countries’, including Japan, where the rules around gore and dismemberment in video games laws are usually quite rigid.

In a surprising move, the devs confirmed the news in an official post on the Stellar Blade X (formerly Twitter) account on April 21, writing that: “Stellar Blade offers the same uncensored version in all countries, including the Japanese version.” This is surprising considering Japan’s regulatory system in video games, CERO, is quite strict about blood, gore, violence, and dismemberment animations.
