New Japanese game banned in Europe and Australia
Publisher PQube stated last morning that action game Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni has been denied ratings in both Germany and Australia, marking the latest title to be refused release in those regions.

The boards from each country claimed that the game depicts "minors in unnatural and sexually explicit poses" and contains "content severely harmful to minors." Criminal Girls 2 and MeiQ: The Labyrinth of Death each shared a similar fate earlier this year.


The title will continue to release in North America and the rest of Europe for PlayStation Vita on September 16. The ESRB and PEGI rating groups gave the game Mature and 16 labels in each region, respectively.
