LOS ANGELES: Sony is limiting sexual content in PlayStation 4 games by instituting new in-house standards, The Wall Street Journal reported April 16. 

The new guidelines are intended to enable game developers to “offer well-balanced content on the platform”, a spokesperson told the WSJ. Further, the guidelines should help ensure that gaming “does not inhibit the sound growth and development” of young players.
