GameBanana Under Fire for Removing Persona 3 Reload Yukari Mod
By Yung Namahage • 2 months ago


The Persona 3 Reload hype train is still going strong, giving fans of the recent Persona and SMT games a chance to check out one of the classics, while old-school fans have been enjoying the fresh spin it has (even if some content is missing). That also means modders are going strong, and of course, the Persona series is known for its variety of waifus in each game, so there'll be mods made to capitalize on that. One such mod posted to mod website GameBanana gives Yukari a more full-bodied appearance.



But it wasn't up for long; GameBanana removed the mod shortly after it was uploaded for supposedly violating their site rules because it "modifies the character from their default appearance enough to constitute sexualization of a minor." They clarified their stance on Twitter:



Needless to say, people on Twitter are not taking it well. People are pointing out the base game is already full of lewd character designs with certain Personas, and GameBanana hosts a lot of sexually provocative mods for characters "indistinguishable from minors" in games like Genshin Impact. Few things piss gamers off more than censorship, as GameBanana learned the hard way.


What do you guys think of this? Should GameBanana put the mod back up? Let us know below!
