‘Martha Is Dead’ to Be Censored for PlayStation Release
Censorship is nothing new for horror fans, including video games. Unfortunately, it’s reared its head again with LKA’s upcoming Martha Is Dead, as Sony has requested that the game be censored for its release on the PlayStation.
Martha Is Dead‘s publisher, Wired Productions, took to Twitter to explain that as per Sony’s request, LKA has had to “modify the experience on the PS5 and PS4 versions [of Martha Is Dead]”. The resulting changes have unfortunately rendered “some elements” of the game no longer playable.
Neither Wired Productions nor LKA have specified exactly how the offending content will have to be censored to appease Sony. Although it does seem that they will remain in cutscene form instead. “After over four years of passion and hard work, Developer LKA now requires extra time to make these unplanned changes.”
While Martha Is Dead will still launch digitally on February 24th for the PS4 and PS5, the physical version of the game will have to be delayed to a “yet to be disclosed date”. The physical edition of the game will still contain the bonus content promise, however.
The PC and Xbox versions of Martha Is Dead will be unaffected by these changes, and not censored.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]
While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.
The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.
As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.
Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
