Halloween: The Game denied classification in Australia and New Zealand over drug depiction
IllFonic's horror game Halloween: The Game has been refused classification in Australia and New Zealand due to the depiction of a controlled substance, reportedly cannabis, which grants Michael Myers a gameplay buff. This decision bars the game from sale in both regions, and it is unclear if IllFonic will alter the game for release. The Australian Classification Board has a history of refusing games based on drug depictions.
