The numbers are in: games are becoming less violent. A study of this month’s E3 trade event by industry publication Gamesindustry.biz found that 33 per cent of the games shown at the event contained no violence, almost double the number identified in 2019. This is heartening news because, while we know violent games do not cause real-world violence, it’s refreshing to see developers tackle a broader range of themes which represent the interests of an increasingly diverse gaming audience.
