GOW III Cleared For Australian Release

By pete_gallagher

Fears over a God of War III banning in Australia can be put to rest as the title has received a MA15+ rating from the Classification Board, effectively clearing it for release.

GameSpot had word on the title's rating, noting that content descriptors on the game's packaging will cite 'Strong violence, sexual references and nudity' as being part of the game.

In light of Australia's lack of an R18+ rating, God of War III's developers had been sweating out whether or not the game would be deemed suitable for release.

Additionally, a God of War III: Ultimate Edition will be offered for sale in Australia for the price of A$248.00.

Thanks Ryan!
