Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club is coming out later this month and while Nintendo has already shared quite a bit of backstory, it looks like the ESRB rating has now revealed a bit more.

This is by no means your average family-friendly Switch release, as it is rated ‘M’ and contains blood, language and violence. According to the official synopsis of the rating, there will be plots dealing with abuse and murder, as well as violent scenes and profanity.

Here’s the first half of the description (which still gives some insight into what to expect), and if you really want to read the explicit part, you can go to ESRB site.

“This is a simulation/adventure game where players follow a junior detective as he works with the police and locals to find a killer. As players examine scenes and collect evidence from witnesses, they can ask different questions to uncover key story elements/backstory.”

In case you missed our previous coverage of Emio, it was produced by Yoshio Sakamoto – the same talent who worked on the original games and existing Switch releases.
