While most critics focus on violence in video games, we don't tend to hear much about all of the bad language. A new study carried out by FandomSpot has explored the use of profanity in video games, putting together a list of where it appears most often. Specifically, the list looks at IMDBs most popular 18+ video games, and which titles feature the most curse words. Does Grand Theft Auto take the trophy, or is the sweariest video game something completely different?<\/p>\n
While Grand Theft Auto appears multiple times in the top 15 games with the most swear words, it's Cyberpunk 2077 that tops the list.<\/p>\n
Cyberpunk 2077 contains more than 720 curse words, edging out GTA 4 with 691 swear words, and sequel GTA 5 with 669.<\/p>\n
With a total of 501 curse words, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas appears at five, below The Last of Us Part 2 with 523 swear words in fourth.<\/p>\n
Other games in the top ten include Until Dawn, Red Dead Redemption 2, Detroit: Become Human, The Witcher 3 and the original Last of Us.<\/p>\n
It's worth emphasising that the list is made up of IMDB's 15 most popular 18+ video games, which means other, less critically acclaimed titles may have more bad language.<\/p>\n
Indeed, the all-time record holder is actually Scarface: The World is Yours, which launched for the PS2 and Xbox back in 2006.<\/p>\n
The Scarface video game adaptation contains a staggering 5,688 uses of the \"F word\" alone, which is enough to earn it a Guinness World Record.<\/p>\n
