Emio – The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club will be released later this month and while Nintendo has share a lot of behind the scenes storiesIt looks like the ESRB ratings are now a little more revealing.

This isn’t your typical family-friendly Switch release, as it’s rated ‘M’ and features blood, language, and violence. According to the official rating summary, there will be plot points involving abuse and murder, and there will also be violent cutscenes and swearing.

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

“This is a simulation/adventure game in which players follow a young detective as he teams up with the police and locals to find a murderer. As players examine crime scenes and collect evidence from witnesses, they can ask various questions to uncover key elements of the story/plot.”
