Saudi Arabian gamers might be missing out onKingdom Come: Deliverance 2
According to a Twitter post from the Arabic gaming news outletVGA4A,Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2might face a ban in Saudi Arabia because of a controversial and supposedly unskippable cutscene that features a gay s*x scene.
The scene,which is reportedly graphic and unskippable, has raised concerns with Saudi authorities, who strictly regulate content coming into its country. The source claims that Warhorse Studios refused to change the game to meet the country’s content guidelines, leading to the possibility of a ban.

While the situation is still unconfirmed, with neither the Saudi government nor Warhorse providing an official statement, the rumor has painted a troubling picture.
After seeing the report, fans are expressing their frustration and voicing their discontent on various social media platforms and gaming forums. Some are even calling out the government for its hypocrisy.
The very idea of banning a game over a single scene highlights the absurdity of censorship in today’s digital age. If the rumor holds true, this level of censorship seems like a desperate attempt to maintain control over narratives that don’t align with the government.
Gamers worldwide are excited about the game’s release

Early reviews that have been released recently havepraised the game for its expansive open-world design, dynamic characters, and improved gameplay mechanics. The game is also getting praise for releasing without any Digital Rights Management (DRM), a welcome move for many players.
Additionally, the reviews have also stated that the game doesn’t have any unskippable scenes, so you should take the report with a huge grain of salt.
While many countries are embracing the diversity and inclusivity of modern gaming, Saudi Arabia remains stuck in a cultural time loop and is looking like unwilling to accept that the world is evolving beyond its restrictive views.
In the end,Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2is looking like a game that offers something for everyone. Well except for those, who are under the harsh grip of censorship control.
