Australia has prohibited Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact

The Australian Classification Board has prohibited the release of Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact, citing "implied sexual violence" as the reason for the ban.

According to a Polygon report, the game by Arc System Works was denied classification because it includes "a scene with a visual depiction of implied sexual violence, in which an adult male exposes himself to minors."

Originally scheduled before 2025, the game's launch is now expected on the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 platforms.

In a related incident in October, Sony issued an apology following the discovery that Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number remained accessible in Australia for an extended period despite being prohibited in 2015 for similar content.

Sony addressed that Hotline Miami 2 lacked "appropriate classification from the Australian Board" and refunded players who had purchased the game during its unclassified availability.
