A YouTuber has had their channel wiped out of 190,000 subscribers after posting gameplay footage from the new horror game Hellraiser: Revival. YouTube enforced a permanent account ban despite the creator having blurred out nudity in the video. The creator said the decision destroyed 10 years of uploads.
The ban appears tied to the game's brutal on-screen gore rather than nudity alone. Hellraiser: Revival has attracted scrutiny over disturbing imagery that goes further than what YouTube's content policies will permit, even when creators try to edit the footage before uploading.
