To no ones surprise Alice: Madness Returns has been given an ESRB rating of mature.  Once again we all will be able to travel down the rabbit hole and into the twisted gory mind of Alice Little on June 14th, 2011 for PC, PS3, or Xbox 360.  For more details on exactly way it has been given this rating see what ESRB had to say about the game.

Rating: Mature

Content descriptors: Blood and Gore, Sexual Themes, Strong Language, Violence
Rating summary: This is an action-adventure game in which players assume the role of Alice Little, an asylum patient attempting to understand her past while struggling with an unbalanced psyche. As they traverse between the real world and Alice’s imagination (i.e., Wonderland), players use pepper grinders, knives, and other weapons to attack fantastical enemies (e.g., trolls, puppets, living teapots, doll-like creatures) in melee-style combat. Battles are accompanied by cries of pain, slashing sounds, and large splashes of blood that stain Alice’s body and the ground. Some enemies can be decapitated, and certain attacks cause them to explode into pieces; in one sequence, young doll-like characters are depicted with bloody wounds that expose their brains. During the course of the game, the dialogue contains occasional references to prostitution (e.g., ‘I saw you down at the bloody whore house,’ ‘Where’d she be without me? On the streets selling her backside,’ and ‘Where’s me money?’/’Get those fat-a*s whores out on the street . . .’). The words ‘f**k’ and ‘c*nt’ can be heard in dialogue.
