Cyberfront to publish GTA: Chinatown Wars in Japan

Title will be first DS game rated CERO Z, for adults only

Japanese publisher Cyberfront will release Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars in the region this autumn.

The title will be the first game released on the DS with a CERO Z rating, according to Siliconera, a mature classification similar to PEGI's 18+ or the ESRB's AO rating.

Other titles released in Japan under the CERO Z mark include Dead Rising, Fable II, Assassin's Creed and Dark Sector

Previous console titles in the Grand Theft Auto series have been published by Capcom, although Cyberfront has been responsible for bringing PC versions of the franchise to the region.
