Qureate CEO Yuji Usuda, head of the Japanese game company Qureate, recently explained why the studio’s “gentlemen’s games” almost always feature busty female characters. In a interview with Game*Spark, Usuda said that portraying adult women with small or flat chests has become “highly risky” because platforms and reviewers may misinterpret petite body types as underage characters. Even clearly adult characters can create problems for releases on platforms like Steam or Nintendo Switch. He said the studio would like to include more body variety, but avoiding release issues has become a priority. “If we took on risky depictions and ended up blocked from releasing the game at all, it would be pointless,” he explained. Usuda also mentioned that Qureate already has to make platform-specific changes to avoid censorship. In Bunny Garden, for example, facial “lotion” was changed to green slime and milk effects were made invisible in some versions.
