"Starfield's ESRB rating hints at explicit content and romantic encounters"

The ESRB has rated Bethesda's upcoming Xbox exclusive game, Starfield, with an M rating for "blood, strong language, suggestive themes, use of drugs and violence". The rating summary reveals that the game will feature fast-paced combat with futuristic weapons, as well as suggestive dialogue between characters after "sharing a bed". The game also includes a fictional drug called Aurora, which players can obtain by stealing or buying from vendors, and consuming it results in a distortion effect on the screen. Starfield is set to release on September 6, and a live stream will take place on June 11.
