In an effort to get past the Adult only rating StarCraft II had previously received in Korea, Blizzard has released a second build of their game recolouring the blood to black, removing the smoking and editing the “vulgar Language”. This has now made the game rating an Age 12, increasing the potential player base in the StarCraft capital of the world exponentially.

“Since StarCraft 2 was originally developed to be a game adolescents could enjoy, we’re very pleased with the Game Rating Board’s decision,” said Blizzard, via a translation. “In the remaining time until StarCraft 2 goes on sale, we’ll do our best to continue to perfect the game so that even more fans can enjoy it.” – FOMOS

The article by Korean e-sports website FOMOS goes on to say that Blizzard is considering releasing a separate adults-only version of the game with all of the offending content intact, but a decision has not yet been made.
