“Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment submitted Mortal Kombat Vita for classification to the Australian Classification Board as we believed that the smaller screen of the PlayStation Vita greatly reduced the impact of violence.”, the publisher told Kotaku Australia in a statement.
“This view was not shared by the Australian Classification Board and as such has been refused classification in Australia.”
Hilarious.
