Additional Information

As part of the Companys activities in video game development publishing and short-form video content creation certain projects discussions or creative materials may include themes visuals language or subject matter that some individuals could find mature violent sexual graphic or otherwise sensitive in nature (collectively referred to as Mature Content). Examples may include but are not limited to depictions or descriptions of combat violence adult themes or relationships suggestive or satirical humor or strong language.
