Frequent players of Azur Lane (more info below) might be a little worried that Sony might actually censor the outfits/skins that the in-game ship girls might have. While this is a worry, I don’t believe they will censor anything as most of the characters are 3D models this time around and not amazing artwork.

Azur Lane, the original mobile app game released in China in 2017 for iOS and Android platforms, reached critical acclaim in China and Japan, hitting five million players within its first four months. In Azur Lane: Crosswave, the PS4 version of this game uses the Unreal Engine and recreates the beloved Azur Lane character designs in the style of cel-shaded 3D graphics!
