The Medium is a 2020 Poland single player psychological horror from Bloober Team The game has been banned by the Australian Censorship Board for reasons unknown. Neither the censors nor the developers have specified any particular reasons for
the ban. The censor's database notes that the film was rated as Refused Classification (banned) in July 2020. The database also notes that the game was submitted under the automated random rating generator process known as IARC. This has a long
history of ludicrous ratings that eventually get overturned by human censors. The game's developers, Bloober Team has made a name for themselves thanks to the line of horror video game titles but it looks like The Medium will be their largest project
launch to date. It is claimed that due to computing requirements, it will only run on the latest consoles, notably Xbox Series X. It is reported that Bloober Team are making cuts to secure a presumably R18+ rating. |
