The game features intense violence, mature language, and themes of war and oppression, making it unsuitable for younger audiences. The strong propaganda element, depicting a fictional North Korean occupation of the US, could be concerning for some players. The open-world nature means there are few natural stopping points, which might make it difficult for players to regulate their play time.
