The console versions are slightly censored, but PS5 has more censorship than Xbox. Both versions will remove a jiggle button in the character creator, but only the PS5 version is going on a war against the underwear options in the game (including removing all the additional ones in the in game shop. No new can be purchased whatsoever). Xbox will not have this change.

I mainly find it amusing that Bandai isn’t just putting that change on the Xbox version out of sheer laziness because of PS5 requiring it, because this version will likely not have much downloads.

Hilarious how Xbox will be the better choice to have your games in there if want to avoid censorship. Switch not included.

There is a character in Pocky and Rocky Reshrined who was censored in the Western versions of it on PS/Switch (strange for Switch, maybe wasn’t a Nintendo decision) but was left alone on in all regions on Xbox (it’s just some cleavage)

They may have left this kind of decision making up to the Japan team they’re building maybe?

Neptunia game. Was it censored in PS version?

Neptunia game. Was it censored in PS version?

The original release of it had a more vulgar script with swearing and stuff but a later update removed it (even going as far as to change “Bastard Sword” to “Brute Sword”). Wasn’t a Sony enforced thing but actually the ESRB demanding it because apparently they weren’t shown that in the rating process lol. Xbox is shipping with that update unfortunately.

The trailer for Neptunia posted to ID@Xbox’s channel happily advertised that the Xbox version exclusively has swimsuit DLC built in though lol.

lol I mean aside from actual update case, was there any censorship that only that platform has? I recall Doki Doki has one as well.

That Neptunia game launched exclusively on PS so there was no other platform to compare to.

Wasn’t BG3 Xbox release date supposed to have been during TGA? I did fast forward at some bits, so maybe I missed it because it was an ad?

Also, do we know when we can expect 1 and 2 on GP?

Apparently Immortals of Aveum is only 9 or so euros with Game Pass now. I saw this on a Dutch Xbox page and he showed the picture of the store.

So…just a heads up. This is a crazy steal. Sure, it’s been said it will come to GP and PS Plus, but when? Insane price.

It apparently was supposed to be, but the Larian people just forgot to announce it when they were on stage.

Probably due to the time limit

Should have assigned the announcement to Christopher Judge.

Oh I was under impression that it was on Switch as well.

That makes no sense whatsoever haha. Wtf.

@Staffy

Question about No Man’s Sky. I gotta say when they showed that trailer of all the content they brought to the game through the years… That looks good!

Would you say with all that content the game is great for a SP player? Someone who doesn’t necessarily wants to build shit but just explore and take on quests, follow the story, or isn’t it like that?

100% yes. No Mans Sky is amazing if you like exploration and base building. The story is interesting as well, but not the main point of the game. It’s a great chill game.

Blame PS.
