Sega is just a few months away from releasing its latest Sonic the Hedgehog game. To get the game in stores, the publisher recently submitted the title, known as Sonic: Lost World, to the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) to get its classification.

As it turns out, the ESRB found some seriously bleak language that involves genocide, strangling, and heart-eating.
