Following ban, Disco Elysium is now available in Australia

Nearly two months after its release in the rest of the world, Disco Elysium: The Final Cut is now available in Australia for PS5 and PS4. The delayed release comes after the RPG was initially refused classification in Australia, meaning it was effectively banned in the country. Despite its “ban” however, versions of the game for PC have remained available throughout the ban period.

The game now carries an R18+ rating in Australia and costs $59.95 on the PlayStation Store. The main sticking point for the Australian Classification Board was the game’s depiction of drug use, offers “sufficient disincentives to drug use to enable it to be accommodated within the R 18+ classification”.
