Much like the Game Boy Advance, the DS has few games rated M for Mature. The most prominent of these is Resident Evil: Deadly Silence, the 2006 reworking of the original game in Capcom's groundbreaking horror-survival series.
The ESRB reveals a new DS game.
Now, though, it appears Deadly Silence will have some company. According to the latest listings on the Entertainment Software Ratings Board Web site, Ubisoft has recently received an M rating for its latest DS game. The title in question earned the imprint for "blood, mild language, [and] violence," which are in rare supply on Nintendo's kid-friendly handheld.
The Ubisoft game is also noteworthy since it has not yet been announced--and might mark the debut of the World War II shooter on the DS. Titled Brothers in Arms War Stories, the game appears to be the second handheld spin-off of Gearbox-developed Brothers in Arms series. Last December, Brothers in Arms D-Day arrived on the PSP to lackluster reviews.
But while the ESRB listing appears to indicate the imminent announcement of Brothers in Arms War Stories, nothing is official yet. Ubisoft declined to comment on the ESRB listing, and did not offer any details on the game.
