Manhunt 2 zabranjen u UKu.

Da igra Manhunt izaziva nasilje, i da se u njoj mogu videte explicitne scene koje nisu poželjne za gledajne, ni za decu kao ni za odrasle, potvrđuje i činjeniča da je moguće da će doći do zabrane Manhunta u UKu. Inače ova igra je u izradi za Wii sa Rockstar Torontom, za PS2 sa Rockstar Londonom, i za PSP sa Rockstarom. Za ovu zabranu direktno je zadužena British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) i za sada postoji mogućnost da se ovaj naslov neće naći u prodaji na Wii i Playstation 2 platformi, dok za PSP jos nije odlučeno, postoji mogućnost za prodaju ukoliko se pojedine stvari cenzurišu, iseku, skrate… U nastavku ovog teksta pogledajte i kompletnu izjavu David Cooka, Direktora BBFCa:

David Cooke, Director of the BBFC said:  "Rejecting a work is a very serious action and one which we do not take lightly. Where possible we try to consider cuts or, in the case of games, modifications which remove the material which contravenes the Board's published Guidelines. In the case of Manhunt 2 this has not been possible. Manhunt 2 is distinguishable from recent high-end video games by its unremitting bleakness and callousness of tone in an overall game context which constantly encourages visceral killing with exceptionally little alleviation or distancing. There is sustained and cumulative casual sadism in the way in which these killings are committed, and encouraged, in the game.

"Although the difference should not be exaggerated the fact of the game's unrelenting focus on stalking and brutal slaying and the sheer lack of alternative pleasures on offer to the gamer, together with the different overall narrative context, contribute towards differentiating this submission from the original Manhunt game. That work was classified '18' in 2003, before the BBFC's recent games research had been undertaken, but was already at the very top end of what the Board judged to be acceptable at that category."
