Upcoming Xbox 360 hack and slash Ninja Gaiden 2 features a cut scene in which “a female character bathes in blood and talks to Ryu with her breasts and buttocks visible”, according to the BBFC.
The game, which has been classified 18 by the UK regulatory body, is set to be one of the most violent ever when it is released in Europe on June 6.
The BBFC’s website contains weapon information some of you may deem to spoil your experience of the game. If you think this might apply to you look away now.
According to the BBFC: “The game was classified ’18’ for strong, bloody violence. This includes sight of Ryu’s weapons sending body parts flying through the air and onto the walls and the ground, with blood splattering beside them. Ryu gathers various weapons as the game progresses, including a sword, nunchucks, bow & arrow, twin swords, a scythe, metal claws and so on. Each of these produces slightly different gore effects against the enemies – for example a staff weapon reduces bodies to sticky lumps of flesh. The player can also use special powers, including the ability to set enemies on fire – this results in sight of the immolated victims screaming and twitching after falling to the ground.
“While many of the enemies at the start of the game are human, as you progress they become more fantastical (some with green blood), and the boss opponents consist of magical witches, giant monsters etc.”
