Halloween: The Game has officially been denied a rating in Australia, preventing the game from being sold physically or digitally in both Australia and New Zealand, but surprisingly, Michael Myers, the brutal executions, blood, and gore aren't the reason why. According to the developers, the Australian Classification Board refused to classify Halloween: The Game because of the presence of a controlled substance, specifically a marijuana consumable that players can smoke to gain a gameplay advantage and better detect Michael Myers. In this video, we're breaking down exactly why Halloween: The Game was refused classification, Australia's controversial rule stating that drug use related to incentives and rewards is not permitted at any classification level, why simply giving the game an R18+ rating wouldn't necessarily solve the problem, and how this bizarre situation compares to Mortal Kombat 9 being famously banned in Australia back in 2011 before eventually receiving an R18+ classifica
