Rise Of Nightmares First Kinect Game To Receive 18-Rating In The UK, ESRB Rates 'M'
April 7, 2011 | By Mike Rose




Sega's upcoming Kinect horror game Rise Of Nightmares has become the first Kinect title to receive an 18 rating from the British Board Of Film Classification.

The Entertainment Software Rating Board has also given the game a 'Mature' rating in the U.S., reporting, "Combat is highlighted by exaggerated sprays of blood, and damage often results in dismemberment or decapitation-stray body parts sometimes litter the ground."

It continues, "Some sequences and cutscenes depict more intense acts of violence: a man screams loudly as spikes impale his body; a restrained character's hand is chopped off before he is killed; a character (cut in half) crawls away in a pool of blood; a soldier is ripped apart by a monster, causing blood to stain the screen."

There are also sexual references and profanity involved. "During the course of the game, some female creatures are depicted in revealing outfits (e.g., 'pasties' that partially cover their breasts)" says the report.

"In one sequence, a woman sits on the central character's chest and engages in suggestive dialogue (e.g., 'Oh, how I've thought of this-night after night. How I've missed these lips.'). Dialogue also includes phrases such as 'Best sex of my life.'/'Worst sex of my life,' 'f**k,' and 'sh*t.'"

According to the BBFC report, the game is set for release in the UK on June 15.
