Silent Hill f Banned in Australia

Silent Hill f has been officially banned in Australia after receiving a "Refused Classification" rating from the country's classification board. This decision means that the game cannot be sold, hired, advertised, or legally imported within the country.

The Australian Classification Board did not provide detailed reasons for the rating, but their website explains that "Refused Classification (RC)" is given to content that falls outside generally accepted community standards and exceeds what can be included in the R 18+ and X 18+ ratings. This leaves fans in Australia unable to access the latest installment in the Silent Hill series.

Contrastingly, the ESRB in the United States rated Silent Hill f as "Mature 17+", citing reasons such as blood and gore, intense violence, and partial nudity. The ESRB's rating summary highlighted frequent blood splatter, enemy attacks impaling the player, gore-filled cutscenes, and concept art featuring a nude mannequin as contributing factors to the M 17+ rating.

The Silent Hill Transmission event on March 13 provided fans with insights into what to expect from Silent Hill f, suggesting that the game could be one of the most graphic and intense entries in the franchise to date.
