"Balatro Pulled from Digital Stores Over Ratings Mix-Up"
The popular game Balatro has been removed from several digital storefronts due to a sudden change in its age rating from 3+ to 18+, attributed to a mistaken belief that the game contains prominent gambling imagery. The publisher, Playstack, asserts that the game does not feature gambling mechanics and had previously addressed concerns about potential gambling imagery with ratings boards, who assured them that it would not be an issue. Balatro remains available on PC platforms despite its removal from some digital stores.
