The game contains frequent cartoonish violence, which is often trivialized for entertainment. While multiplayer servers are no longer active, the game's focus on competitive combat could foster competitive toxicity, where players may develop overly aggressive tendencies. There is also a degree of sexualized content in the portrayal of some female wrestlers.

  • GDPR-K:What Ludograph checks: whether age assurance and consent flows are designed for under-16s, in the spirit of GDPR Article 8.: Estimated from review data. No privacy or child-targeting concerns found.
  • ODDS:What Ludograph checks: whether paid random-reward drop rates are disclosed, as required in China, Japan and South Korea.: Estimated from review data. No paid random-reward mechanics found, so drop-rate disclosure requirements do not apply.
