Ready Or Not, the tactical first-person shooter developed by VOID Interactive, has been at the center of a recent debate after receiving an update that introduces visual censorship elements, especially in its PC version. The change has generated diverse reactions among players, leading the studio to offer an official explanation.

This situation takes on even more relevance now that the game is about to arrive on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, which is why adjustments have been made to comply with console publication requirements. The response was quick, and VOID has published a statement on the game’s official Steam page to calm the situation and clarify that the changes do not affect gameplay or the overall tone of the title.

Minimal but necessary changes in Ready Or Not

The most commented modification refers to the removal or alteration of sensitive content, such as corpse models and partial nudity in certain situations. According to VOID Interactive, these modifications were essential to distribute the game on consoles without age rating obstacles or legal restrictions. However, they have assured that:

The changes are minor and do not alter the tactical focus or the intense atmosphere of the game. It was simply necessary to adjust certain visual elements to adapt them to Sony and Microsoft’s publication policies.

In the same statement, the studio insists that its artistic vision and commitment to realism have not been compromised. They have also pointed out that they continue to explore ways to allow players to choose what type of content they want to see, although for the moment, they have not promised any reversal function.
