With China and Japan censoring Gori: Cuddly Carnage for being too gory, the people behind the upcoming game want to turn the setback into a good cause. As such, Angry Demon Studio and Wired Productions are offering people the chance to be credited in the title by donating blood.
Angry Demon Studio made the announcement on X (formerly known as Twitter), sharing directions on how to appear in the credits as a “Lifesaver.” Basically, it boils down to taking a selfie while giving blood and using the hashtag “GorisGotBlood” on either X or Instagram. It’s all part of turning “a bloody mess into a bloody good cause.”
Become a ‘LifeSaver’ in the credits!

On Steam, it’s explained that Gori: Cuddly Carnage will feature “purple juice” instead of blood in Asian countries where it’s censored. That won’t affect the hack-and-slash action game in Europe or North America.
Gori: Cuddly Carnage will see players assuming the role of a hoverboarding cat who slices and dices up the Adorable Army, which includes unicorns. The game wants people to dispose of foes in the “most brutal and stylish way possible.”
Launching August 29, Gori: Cuddly Carnage is slated to arrive on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. A demo for the game is coming August 8.
