Manhunt 2 Receives An M Rating

The Company Rockstar today announced that Manhunt 2, the highly controversial game has gotten an 'M' Rating, and will be coming out on Sony's PSP, PS2, and the Nintendo Wii.
The date for the release has been set for October 31st 2007.
This announced a modified version of the game, which ESRB was able to give an 'M' Rating, for ages 17 and up.
In June, the company Take-Two was shocked when the game had gotten an AO Rating by ESRB.

Manhunt 2 is the first of many games from the Rockstar London Studio, which is in development with the series creator Rockstar North.
Previews of Manhunt 2 which had been set at the official site (Manhunt 2 Website) have consistently praised the games originality and creative use of narration, tone, and an atmosphere to evoke an experience which many games cannot match.
The Wii version of Manhunt 2 is in development in Rockstar Toronto.

Along with the M Rating, ESRB also attached this following descriptive content: Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content and Use of Drugs.

Rockstar founder and executive producer, Sam Houser had this to say:

Manhunt 2 is important to us, and we're glad it can finally be appreciated as a gaming experience.
We love the horror genre. Manhunt 2 is a powerful piece of interactive story telling that is a unique video game experience. We think horror fans will love it.

Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of Take-Two had this to say:

Manhunt 2 is an extraordinary game, and we eagerly anticipate its release in North America.

Now we can finally see this game come out, which most gamers thought never would.
