There is Shocking pic and story going around about a game released a week ago Watch_Dogs 2. Most people are shocked by the person who found this got his account banned for PlayStation Network. I thing is how this got by the ESRB is the real question. Here is the run down of the story.
Watch Dogs 2 players have
discovered, the game contains full-frontal nudity, but if you want to
share a screenshot or footage of this content, you could get your
account suspended by Sony. At least, that’s what happened to one
PlayStation 4 user when he used the console’s Share feature to
upload a screenshot of a fallen character seemingly wearing
crotchless panties.
A QA tester wrote in a post on an
online forum that he found himself faced with an account suspension
after sharing an image of a naked female NPC in Ubisoft’s new open
world game. “On Sunday evening I accidentally blew up a few women
in a back alley with a gas pipe and then I saw *it*,” the tester wrote.
“I took a picture of this funny oversight with the ingame camera
and shared it on twitter for my friends to see and I posted it in one
of the Watch Dogs early release threads on here. Cut to tonight where
I can’t access my services while playing the game and then when I
tried to sign in there was a very brief message about my account
being suspended.” PlayStation Network’s terms
of service, defamatory or offensive materials represent a breach
of contract. The terms state that users should not “share anything
that is vulgar or use community features to harm or alarm anyone.”
Sony sent an email to the tester explaining the suspension:
“Content of an adult or sexual nature is against our Code of
Conduct. The suspension will last 1 week. You won’t be able
to access online multiplayer, PlayStation Store and other
network features until the suspension is over.
We ask all our players to act decently, respectfully and with consideration for us and other players while using PlayStation Network. To make sure you understand the behaviour we expect from our community, please review the Code of Conduct before returning to PlayStation Network. Please be aware that any further breaches of the Code of Conduct may result in a longer suspension or even a permanent ban.”
In a statement to IGN, an Ubisoft representative responded to the story and claims that the nude NPC model will be taken out in a patch to be released sometime this week:

In a statement to IGN, an Ubisoft representative responded to the story and claims that the nude NPC model will be taken out in a patch to be released sometime this week:
“We’re aware that one of the NPC models in Watch Dogs 2 is rendered in a way that is particularly explicit. While Watch Dogs 2 is a mature-rated game, we apologize and will update this NPC model to make it more consistent with other NPC models in the game in a patch to be released this week. We also are working with our first-party partners to ensure that players can continue to play and share all content from the game within the bounds of the first parties’ respective codes of conduct.”It is unclear whether Ubisoft plans to remove male genitalia from the game as well, which one would assume would also lead to a suspension if shared in a screenshot or gameplay footage. For now, it seems that you can share all the dead bodies you want in Watch Dogs 2, but if there’s even a bit of nudity involved, you could be faced with a ban.
