  • Rating-board submission: provide CERO with representative gameplay, cutscenes, and the most extreme combat footage for the CERO Z package.
  • Store-page copy: display CERO Z age handling and Japanese localized descriptors consistently across storefront, launcher, and platform metadata.
  • Marketing assets: use the reduced gore asset set and avoid blood-pool, dismemberment, and skeletal-pierce hero frames.
  • In-game text: route Japanese strings through the launch glossary and cultural review for honorifics, fighter names, finisher names, and UI labels.
  • Audio: use Japanese VO launch bank and per-fighter pickup sheet; ensure subtitle timing matches Japanese lip-sync retiming.
  • Cinematics: dismemberment and blood pools are reduced, and X-Ray scenes use the non-bone-shatter alternate.
  • Store flow: age-gated CERO Z purchase and launcher entry must map to RegionVariant.JP.CEROZ.
  • Runtime: boot assert verifies Japan install, CERO Z SKU, and reduced-gore cinematic manifest.
