Silent Hill f is not messing around – now it’s been banned in Australia

Silent Hill f may not release in Australia thanks to a decision by the country’s Classification Board. The horror reboot has been “Refused Classification”, which means its content is too extreme for an R18+ rating and is thus banned. As of right now, the organisation hasn’t explained what’s behind the ban.

It’s not hard to join the dots ourselves, though, and Steam’s mature content description for Silent Fill f is the best place to start. According to that listing—which is filed by Konami—”The game contains depictions of gender discrimination, child abuse, bullying, drug-induced hallucinations, torture and graphic violence”.
