Australia finally gets the R18+ Rating for Mature Games

Australia finally gets the R18+ Rating for Mature Games

Australian gamers have something to cheer about today. After much deliberation, the Australian Parliament's finally passed legislation approving the R18+ rating for videogames. This means that Australian gamers will have access to mature-rated games without having to import them from other countries. For those unfamiliar with the R18+ issue in Australia, previously most games deemed "mature" by other countries would be banned by the Australian government, removing even adults' abilities to buy a mature-rated videogame in stores.
Previously, only M15+ games have been allowed within Australian borders.
