Capcom Cracks Down on 'Offensive' Game Mods, Worrying Modding Community

Capcom says some mods can cause "reputational damage" by offending "public order and morals", hurting the game and company image.

Capcom doesn't provide examples of what it considers offensive, but suggests risqué mods like nude skins may qualify.

Mods allow users to customize games, which Capcom says can be positive, but some are seen as detrimental.

For anti-cheat purposes, Capcom defines all mods as cheats, even if just customization.

Popular Capcom franchises like Resident Evil have huge modding communities, including silly mods like Shrek as Nemesis.
