Overview
- Players in the Digital Deluxe Early Access found a closet-based Two-Person Power-Up that let two civilian characters initiate an off-screen sex minigame and gain a temporary “stronger together” buff, and that discovery spread online over the weekend.
- Hotfix 1 quietly removed the minigame on Sunday, with initial patch notes omitting the change and the game remaining in Early Access ahead of its September 8 full release.
- IllFonic told IGN the removal was needed because an unintended issue allowed end-game reinforcement characters to access the feature and that allowing sexual interactions involving 17‑year‑old characters was a major oversight.
- The rollback has split the community: some players demand the feature be restored while others and multiple outlets have raised ethical and legal concerns about the pairing of older or deceased-actor likenesses with underage characters.
- Reporting notes the game still contains broader nudity and sexual content and that regional classification or further content changes could follow as the studio addresses QA, transparency, and moderation questions before launch.
