The moment that pre-order is up I am ATTACKING IT!!!! I've been wanting this game since BEFORE the Z was added!
By the by, what does this version add? Is it a sequel or an updated rerelease?

Been banned in several countries including Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, United Kingdom, and Germany.
The main argument seems to be that actions depicted in the game are offensive and will alter players understanding of morality to emulate these actions.
I have yet to find anything that shows games have such power. If they do then frankly the whole medium needs to be under review.
I think any game can be rated and store can refuse to sell them and people can refuse to buy them, but I do not get the banning of a game, book, or movie.

I actually think this press may bump sales a bit as this will be the most controversial game of 2018. I find it disturbing how quickly people rationalize banning speech they don't like while rationalizing their own offensive speech. Shooting a character doesn't mean people will become murderers and rubbing a character doesn't mean people will become rapists. People are free to be offended and not buy it, but refusing other's rights to do so is far to authoritarian for my tastes.

well yea I imported School Girl Zombie Hunter japanese version when it launched. PS4 PSN is cross region, so EU players can create US accounts and get NA PSN store cards from an online shop.

I'm really getting concerned (and broken hearted)... Pre-orders aren't up yet and it's nearly summer! With all this talk of banning, I'm worried the release will be cancelled, OR WORSE! Released, but HEAVILLY censored! PLEASE NO! WHY CAN'T I JUST ENJOY MY ANIME GIRL GAME!?
EDIT: Sorry, guess I was being a little overly dramatic. PQube, bless their gaming souls, have already said they wouldn't censor the game (Hooray!). The ESRB also already rated it M, so no need for further inquiry about the content. The only other thing to worry about is the release date and how it's being released. Pre-orders are no longer up, and I'm pretty sure we aren't getting it on June 30th anymore. *sigh* Guess I'm playing the waiting game again... (Oh, well... Gives me time to finish Hollow Realization!)

Welp, my summer dream just got crushed! Sony (cmon guys...) apparantly stopped the localization the west themselves! I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!!! *Wipes tears from crying* *Heavy sigh* Guess I'll have to import it now...
(Still... that was pretty jerky of them to wait this long to do something... game was supposed to come out this week too... *grumble grumble*)

According to the auto translate on the homepage (https://www.d3p.co.jp/omegalabyrinth_z/), Omega Labrynth Z was indeed the sequel (not an update) to Omega Labrynth.
Oh, and apparently my favorite character Urara is a masochist! Who knew! (Oh my...)

Very disappointed in Sony and don't understand people celebrating this that had zero interest in playing it.

Very disappointed in Sony and don't understand people celebrating this that had zero interest in playing it. its those dam Iran/Saubi Arabia/Taliban/Islam worshippers and their corrupt culture influencing some westerners. look at even FIFA where on reddit it is said that FIFA is telling broadcasters to avoid zooming in on attractive women during the soccer matches cutaways of the crowds. its absurd and evil how much those psychos want to condemn and censor female beauty overall. now Im not interested in OLZ but I respect the people that wanted to play it localized. it really is shameful the industry is so immature and insecure as they start blocking games like these which aren't even offensive compared to games like Gal Gun which don't even have a female protagonist and just treat the girls as objects to shoot. at least in Omega Labynrith the girls are the protagonist. so their breasts get larger, and put stuff between their boobs to appraise stuff, so what. but yea, there are proactive sexists and misogynists and misguided conservative SJWs that try to caues problems. though that's more cause for liberals and open minded feminists to educate the masses and really have understand that these kinda games are not crossing the line. at least from what I seen, it's really not something offensive. but yea with these situations, devs should try to make the games beautiful, but not try to blantantly pander to perverts specifically. they can still do what they wanna do without signaling red lights. well anyways, perhaps 7EVEN will get localized without issue.

Yay! My import arrived and I can confidently say the game is BEAUTIFUL! Interestingly, there was an update for it (nearly a gig in size) so I got it but don't know what it did, cause I can't read japanese... Either way, I'm so happy to finally have it! (Even if an english version would be soooooooo much better...)
Also, yeah... I really hope this whole debacle doesn't cause issues for future Senran Kagura games. (Or any other games for that matter...)
