- A clause in the criminal code that allows such symbols to be used in a "socially adequate" way will now be applied to games just as it is to films, the German Entertainment Software Self-Regulation Body (USK) said on Thursday.
"In this context socially adequate means that symbols of unconstitutional organisations can be used in a title if it serves an artistic or scientific purpose or helps depict current events or history," USK Managing Director Elisabeth Secker said.
She added that games which clearly express opposition to the unconstitutional organisation or its ideology, for example, could be considered "socially adequate".
