EA’s First M-Rated Game Was Way Ahead of Its Time

A particularly distinctive game was released on December 5, 2000, marking the first time the publisher had received an M-rating due to its frightening content and intense action. The game offered a dark and Gothic reimagining of a well-known story and its famous characters. Though it became a cult favorite upon release, this mature-themed title from EA would likely have been a major success with today’s gamers.
