Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact is a 2025 Japan 3 on 3 tage team fighting game by Eighting

Banned by the Australian Censorship Board in November 2024. The reasons have not yet been published. The Game was submitted to the censors for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5.

 

 

British counter-terror police have blocked a video game that allows players to recreate Hamas's Oct 7 attacks on Israel.

The police have ordered Steam, an online video game marketplace, to remove Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque from its UK store.

The game drew the attention of terror police because it included scenes of players paragliding into an Israeli army base and killing soldiers. Although the game does not refer to Hamas directly, a trailer displays Israeli soldiers being shot in the head by terrorists wearing green Hamas-style headbands.

Nidal Nijm, the game's Brazilian-Palestinian creator, said in a statement on Steam's website:

The request to block my game in the UK came from the Counter Terrorism Internet Referral Unit (CTIRU). So this is clear that UK authorities consider my game as 'terrorist' propaganda.

Despite being blocked in Austria, Germany and the UK, the video game remains on sale in the US for $14.99 (£12).

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: The Counter Terrorism Internet Referral Unit (CTIRU) is a national Counter Terrorism Policing unit based within the Met's Counter Terrorism Command, which is dedicated to the assessment of potential terrorist and extremist material found online by the public.

Tajikistan has enacted a ban on the distribution of the video games Counter-Strike and Grand Theft Auto (GTA), citing concerns about the games containing violent and immoral content.

The country's interior ministry announced that police in the capital, Dushanbe, will conduct raids and inspections of computer gaming centers suspected of selling these games. The ministry said,

Young people and teenagers who regularly play these games come under their negative influence and commit various crimes.

The ministry urged parents to monitor their children's activities and discourage them from playing games that promote killing, theft, and violence.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is a 2024 US first person shooter published by Activision

The game was banned by Kuwait government censors in October 2024. The government has reportedly blocked the game from being sold in stores or downloaded digitally.

In a statement from publishers Activision, the company confirmed the news:

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has not been approved for release in Kuwait. At this time, the title will not be available for release in region. As a result, all pre-orders in Kuwait will be cancelled and refunded to the original point of purchase. We remain hopeful that local authorities will reconsider, and allow players in Kuwait to enjoy this all-new experience in the Black Ops series.

Gamers who had pre-ordered the game will receive full refunds, but the disappointment remains high. It's not the first time Kuwait has blocked a game, with previous examples including The Sims: FreePlay and Dragon's Dogma 2, highlighting the stricter regulations on gaming in the country.

The reason behind Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 being blocked in Kuwait hasn't been officially revealed, but it's likely due to its focus on the Gulf War and Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait in 1990, which is a sensitive topic for the region.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be available elsewhere on October 25 for the PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
