The video game industry has set guidelines about the types of content that are appropriate in advertising and marketing materials, which includes game box art.
We never censor or dictate in any way what type of content can be included within a game. However, a game's marketing materials are seen by an audience that is much broader than that which actually purchases the game itself, so we enforce industry-adopted guidelines as to what is suitable for inclusion in these materials.

Due to the guidelines depiction of what images are suitable, their original logo didn't comply.
