H1Z1 China Replaces Police Cars With Taxi Cabs

In an odd bit of censorship, the Chinese version of H1Z1 available through Steam has released a patch which transform police cars into taxis cabs. That's not all. According to 17173, even the game's blood got a makeover: it's been recolored to black. A bit odd. I've certainly played Chinese games with crimson flowing splatter effects before, or maybe my memory is fading.

This isn't the first, or the last time, China has censored games. Did you know every World of Warcraft skeleton is covered up in the Chinese edition? Can't show those bones.

I do find it funny that the police cars were changed into Taxis. Though it's a fair trade. Both vehicles drive at high speeds, sometimes recklessly, to get to where they need to be.

In related news, Tencent is publishing the state of nature murder simulator, and will likely add the title to its own WeGame client, eventually.
