In Japan, the video game classification board called CERO has declared that a toned-down version of Assassin’s Creed Shadows will hit the shelves. This PS5 game is marked with a CERO Z rating, indicating it’s not suitable for anyone under 18 years old. Notably, any elements in the game associated with graphic violence or gore have been entirely omitted.
To ensure the game adheres to the rules set by the reviewing authority, dismemberment has been removed from the game. Players can adjust this feature via a toggle in the settings menu. In the Japanese version of the game, it’s not feasible to detach an enemy’s head or limbs. As confirmed on Twitter by Ubisoft, the depiction of severed body parts has also been altered.
Previously, other Assassin’s Creed games have also undergone censorship in Japan, just like how Assassin’s Creed Valhalla was adjusted due to the same circumstances.
In our latest review, we delved into Assassin’s Creed Shadows for PS5, having spent four hours exploring its open world. Unlike some previous installments, it’s not expansive – which is a plus for many players. It seems to surpass its predecessors in terms of visual quality. Given that the team behind Shadows also developed Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, this is quite an achievement. Shadows might just represent the pinnacle of Ubisoft’s RPG approach to the enduring franchise so far.
