The Philippines has moved to ban a video game reportedly used by a teenaged gunman before a school shooting, sources confirm. The game, a first-person shooter title, is now under review by the British Board of Film Classification. The move follows an emergency decree from the Philippine government, which ordered an immediate halt to sales and distribution.
Uncovered documents from the Department of Trade and Industry show the ban extends to digital platforms. The UK film board confirmed it has launched a classification review, citing fresh evidence linking gameplay to real-world violence. Corporate lobbyists are already circling, but this is one story they can't bury.
