Modern Warfare 2 Classified An 18 By The BBFC

Modern Warfare 2 Is Going To Be Pretty Brutal Then.

News just in that the BBFC have rated Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 an 18. It goes one rating further than the already rather brutal Call Of Duty: World At War, and is perhaps an indication that Infinity Ward’s trademark “in your face” moments will return in Modern Warfare 2. It’s actually the first Call Of Duty game to score an 18 rating.

It’s also worth noting that there’s still no sign of that “Call Of Duty” name in the game’s official title. Of course, it will still pop up on the box.

    I thought the UK government had handed over game ratings exclusively to PEGI, and that the BBFC no longer had any say in the matter?

    Yeah, sorry, I wasn't meaning to cast doubt on the story. It just seemed strange after what I'd read that the BBFC were still involved at all.

    Probably a transistional period, as you say. Heaven forbid anything ever move swiftly where UK red tape is concerned!
  • I believe they're still in transition, although don't quote me on it. Either way - the one thing I can confirmed is that the BBFC definitely were submitted footage/copies of Modern Warfare 2 and they have rated it an 18.
