Australia Prohibits Release of Hunter x Hunter: Nen Impact Game

The Australian Classification Board has banned the upcoming anime fighting game "Hunter x Hunter: Nen Impact," giving it a "Refused Classification" status. This means the game cannot be sold or exhibited in Australia. While the board did not specify reasons, common causes for such bans include promoting drug use or inappropriate content involving minors. The game, initially set for a 2024 release, has been delayed to 2025 to add features like rollback netcode. Developers may alter the game's content to achieve classification before its release.
