Berserk fans (of both hemispheres for once) have been going berserk over the censorship imposed on the recently released “Berserk & The Band of The Hawk“, with it removing the infamously traumatizing violation scene (as many would expect) but also toning down the gore and violence so that the title could get a decent rating in Japan.
Western barbarians can rest assured knowing that their beloved violence and gore has gone untouched in the western release, but the horrors of a more sexually explicit nature (such as Casca’s body and the tentacular appendages holding her up on the game’s cover) have apparently been removed to appease the safe space crowd – some of the changes can be seen below:

The entire gruesome scene from the Berserk film, which possesses a myriad of differences from the game:

Some may be happy to know that the notable “rape horse” scene was still left in the game:
Berserk and the Band of the Hawk and all its censored content can be begrudgingly experienced now in Japan for the PC and PS4, as well as in the west.

The game sucks anyway lul
Honestly all this could be circumvented using patches. They can sell the game with a M rating or equivalent to zone, and provide a patch on their website or forums with adult warnings etc… They wouldn’t be the first to do this. Visual novels keep doing this on Steam, providing an all-ages version and having an adult patch.
They just don’t care enough about the consumer and/or are afraid of negative PR.
The west was meant to get more gore while the east got more sex… but the west is just getting the middle finger.
If I’m ever gonna have a kid, he’s going to see r♥♥e, gore, full-blown sex e.t.c. since age 4 or something. To be more precise, I’ll let him watch and play whatever the hell he wants, be it Teletubbies show or uncensored r♥♥e porn. Because f♥♥k censorship, nothing good comes out of it.
And you would be arrested for corrupting a minor. Do us all a favor and never have kids
