Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception Rated by the ESRB

It looks like Utawarerurmono: False Mask, also known as Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen, may be making its way over to English speaking shores sometime in the future with a slightly different name. The ESRB has posted a rating for Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception for the PS Vita with the rating listing Sega as the publisher. This Aquaplus developed strategy-RPG/visual novel was originally released for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita in 2015 and had the third game in the trilogy released last year.

Whether or not Sega, or perhaps Atlus USA, will be localizing the game is currently unknown but for now you can check out the the description provided by the ESRB below:

This is a strategy role-playing game in which players help an amnesiac hero regain his lost memories. From a 3/4-overhead perspective, players explore the environment, interact with characters, and engage in turn-based battles against enemy soldiers. Players use swords, staffs, and magic spells to attack enemies; damage is indicated by flashes of light and hit-point numbers. A handful of sequences depict large bloodstains on the ground and splashes of blood as a character slashes through an army of enemy soldiers; large blood stains may also appear on the players’ screen.

The game contains references to sexual material in the dialogue (e.g., “We would like you to describe Master’s habits. His sexual likes and dislikes. . .The average number of times Master is able to perform on a nightly basis. Also his favored positions” and “It’d be a shame if those great t*ts of yours never get the lovin’ they deserve.”). Some sequences and gallery images depict characters partially nude with obscured breasts and buttocks; one prolonged sequence involves a character losing her underwear/bottom and exposing her groin— though no genitalia is depicted. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” appear in dialogue.
