This game features graphic violence, including people’s throats being slit from behind with accompanying sight of blood. There are also instances of violence towards restrained characters, who are seen being caned and branded with irons as punishments for their crimes. In one mission, a character is tortured for information, with the player’s character able to deliver blows to the restrained man and use pliers on him, although the latter is implied rather than explicitly depicted. Players can also kill or injure innocent characters.
This game also contains the use of strong language, including ‘cunt’ and ‘fuck’.
Players are able to choose to consume alcohol, as well as being encouraged to drink as part of some quests. There is a ‘drinking’ skill progression in which drinking more alcohol results in perks.
Other issues
The player’s character can engage in sexual activity with other characters. There is some sight of female breasts and buttocks but no sight of genitals.
The player’s character may encounter dead bodies, with some sight of gore, such as exposed intestines. Hanged bodies may also be encountered, with dialogue alluding to suicide, although the player will never see any characters take their own life.
In one scene, a woman is seen being restrained while men attempt to kiss and undress her against her will. The woman is saved before anything further happens.
This game offers players the opportunity to purchase in-game items, in the form of DLC purchased through the base game, which some parents or carers may want to be aware of. Parents, carers, or other responsible adults should check to see what is being offered before making any purchase on behalf of a child. It should be noted that the game can still be played without the need to purchase such items.
