Content changes and age ratings
Nintendo’s listings state: “Some mature content from Dispatch’s original version has been modified.” The Nintendo edition should therefore not be described as unchanged from the original.
Ratings and content labels vary by territory. Nintendo UK classifies the game as PEGI 18 and flags extreme violence, nudity, strong language, and in-game purchases. Nintendo Australia labels high impact violence and in-game purchases and links to its classification listing. Check the classification shown for your territory.
