Question by news234 · Apr 25, 2017 at 05:05 AM · licenseprolicensinglicenseslicence

Is it allowed to create adult content with Unity? Which license is needed?

I ask Unity, Photon and Playfab the same question. And adult contend is allowed with Photon and Playfab (see their acceptal use docs), but i have no answer from Unity?

Since killing people is allowed in Unity and Gambling, also adult content should be no problem, as long i mention not Unity by name. Is it right?

For killing people in real life, you have to go to prision forever! Its the craziest thing humans can do to other humans. And so much games have only one topic: brutal murder. Making xxx is pure nature, to make babys and have fun. Thats why i ask this specific question about Unity licensing and i hope of course there is no double moral.

I couldn't find anything in the EULA that prohibits adult content. Note that you can't create gambling apps in Unity without a special licence, however.

I'd think the main problem would be distributors. Does Apple, say, even allow prurient games? I also suggest you specify "adult content, " otherwise it sounds like you're making a game where you play a broken bad cannibal child-trafficker.

This is a community forum: the users here are not lawyers, and do not represent Unity (for the most part, at least). We have plenty of experience and we can help with our interpretation and knowledge of the EULA, but if you want an authoritative answer you'd need:

a.) To provide the specific detail of exactly what your content is (this is not prohibited by this forum btw).

b.) To contact either your own lawyer or Unity's legal team: legal@unity3d.com

If you get an authoritative answer, do please let us know.

@tanoshimi

We got a answer from Unity and we are glad, that there is no double moral. In short:

Adult content is allowed. Of course inside the rules of law and app store rules (s$$anonymous$$m is ok, for android installation would be without the app store, no iOS).

Statement from Unity:

"Thanks for getting in touch.

From a Unity perspective it is not a problem. Unity is a creative platform so you can make anything you wish.

Saying that please be aware that if you want to publish your game then you will need to bare in $$anonymous$$d the publisher rules eg Google play store etc."

So the question is answered.

@tanoshimi @Owen-Reynolds

Thanks for your comments! We are glad to read some voices about this topic.

Our problem is, that until now we see no statement from Unity. If there is nothing in the EULA written, what forbids adult content, that would be the first step to make things clear. Any other acceptal use docs? But finaly it would be good to read something (public) from the Unity staff, which makes it really clear.

Adult content means games with erotic and sexual content between adults. We dont want to go in detail, because of the moderation system, which prevents of course such words.

Our question is not about app stores. But as example Steam has many adult games or games with adult content. The question is: is it clearly allowed to use Unity to produce a game with adult content?

This will be big market in the future years, as better VR and AR gets. So this is also a business question. The adult content community will use engines, but only this engines, which clearly allow such content (of course to protect our investments).

Thanks again for your first input.
