It was rather predictable, the next blockbuster of CD Projekt Red, will be heavily censored in Japan, as reported by the Australian site Press Start . This is largely explained by the fact that the Japanese have a very different vision from the West, concerning nudity and modesty and that it is formally forbidden to sell or expose to the public documents, drawings or other items showing genitals.
Thus, Cyberpunk 2077, in which we will have many choices of personalization, especially on sex will undergo some modifications, like this:
- Adding underwear to nude male / female characters.
- Revision of certain sexually explicit content.
- Selective review of the breakdown of the human body / exposed organs.
- Revision / removal of billboards / graffiti in the shape of genitals.
Note that Australia, relatively straddling firearms games and doing violence like the censorship of Grand Theft Auto V or DayZ, has made a classification +18 to Cyberpunk 2077 but without no censorship.
