In a recent statement, Sony announced that an in-game graffiti referencing a racial slur in Stellar Blade will be patched out in the game’s day-one update. The controversial graffiti, which reads ‘Hard’ and appears next to an in-game shop known as the ‘R Shop’, has sparked debate and criticism.

Sony clarified that the placement of the two graphics was unintentional and that developer Shift Up had no intention of creating offensive artwork. They assured players that the graffiti would be replaced in the day-one patch.

Despite the game receiving positive reviews, some critics, including IGN, have taken issue with the graffiti, calling it racist. This has led to discussions about fake outrage in gaming journalism and the need to find controversy where there may not be any.

What are your thoughts on this situation? Do you think the graffiti was intentionally racist, or is it being blown out of proportion? Let us know in the comments below!
