Steam reverses porn game rating it mistakenly gave to an indie vampire RPG, and despite the stress it was a 'net positive' overall as wishlists on Steam 'basically doubled overnight'

Valve has reversed its decision to give the upcoming RPG Nighthawks an adults-only rating, allowing it to be more visible on Steam. Publisher Wadjet Eye Games and developer Richard Cobbett expressed relief, noting the initial rating caused significant stress but ultimately led to a doubling of wishlists, which they consider a net positive despite the marketing boost being unintentional.
