But Soulcalibur V has also made headlines for his controversial, the ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board, responsible for recommending the appropriate age for games) felt that their new game "Soulcalibur V" must be played by teenagers and people of any age, and the breasts and necks of his female characters were very exuberant.

The response of Bandai-Namco deal with this "censorship" was swift and started a Facebook campaign to promote his new title. His first ad showed a lot of cleavage with the phrase "With the new year full of hope chest" and after a barrage of criticism showed a new poster that looked a protective crotch of a male character with "large Become or go home".

This campaign lasted only a few days, as Soulcalibur V was deemed "too offensive" and the developer has not commented on advertisements. But the controversy had already begun and the game began to receive more criticism for its content.

In his new mode "Character Creation" (which will let you create new characters to compete online) you can increase your breast size female characters dress them scantily clad and zoom in parts of the body. And the violence in these games has also been increasing and it is normal to see the characters being pierced by swords or spears. The ESRB also struck by the language used by the characters and constantly insulting opponents.
