According to PEGI, the game features drug use that is \u201cfrequent and prominent,\u201d with the player being able to \u201cpartake in drug use with others and to use illegal drugs directly from their inventory\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cMost notably, cocaine can be carried around by the player and snorted directly from their hand at any time,\u201d PEGI says.<\/p>\n
GTA 6 also features strong sexual themes, according to the ratings board, including \u201cnudity, scenes of intercourse and occasional scenes of sexual fetishes\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn various nightclubs, the player can also pay for private dances, during which the game allows the player to move their hands onto the dancers\u2019 breasts and buttocks,\u201d it says.<\/p>\n
GTA 6 has been rated M for MatureIn addition to the above, PEGI says that domestic animals are present in the game and can be harmed by the player, \u201chowever this does not produce the same injury detail that can be generated towards human characters\u201d.<\/p>\n
The PEGI 18 rating for Grand Theft Auto 6<\/a> comes days after GTA 6 received its official ESRB rating, which confirmed an \u201cM for Mature.\u201d The game is due to release next month, on November 19.<\/p>\n Before its full reveal in a recent Netflix<\/a> special, a former Grand Theft Auto developer claimed that online leaks were \u201cfar less consequential\u201d to developer Rockstar than the infamous \u2018Hot Coffee\u2019<\/a>, an infamous sex mini-game uncovered in the code of GTA San Andreas after its 2004 release, which resulted in intense legal backlash and a warning from the FTC.<\/p>\n \u201cI was there during Hot Coffee,\u201d the developer wrote. \u201cIt was a nightmare for management (R*NewYork) but didn\u2019t affect us (R*North) much. The current leaks are far less consequential than HC was. \u201cIt looks like GTA 6 will be phenomenal and sell for the next 15 years or so. The leaks are just a tiny blip.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A now-pulled age rating for Grand Theft Auto 6 has revealed that the game features sex scenes and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":790845,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[59,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-790844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gb","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/790844","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=790844"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/790844\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/790845"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=790844"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=790844"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=790844"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
