Dispatch – Ver. ??? (HR Violation Pack)
- Release date: June 17th/18th 2026
- Patch notes:
Our latest free update, HR Violations, adds new visual filters that can be found in Dispatch’s General Settings > Filters menu. Available settings vary per region, so read on to make sure you’re fully aware of which HR Violations you’re committing before you play.
Coverage Settings (Partial or Full)
Partial Coverage (Default): Butts, boobs, and birds (AKA, middle fingers) are all set free. HR tells us genitals and explicit audio are still off limits, so those stay censored.
Full Coverage: Fully censors all explicit visual and audio content.
Censorship Styles (Mosaic, Chaotic, or Blackout)
Mosaic (Default): Covers up with a demure pixelated blob.
Chaotic: Covers up with whatever’s lying around, like jorts.
Blackout: This standard censorship style is still available for maximum coverage.
Regional Availability
Coverage Settings:
-
North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand: Partial or Full Coverage (player choice)

Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Southeast Asia: Full Coverage only
Censorship Styles:
-
North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Southeast Asia: Mosaic, Chaotic, or Blackout (player choice)

- Additional notes: this “update” is actually a free DLC that you need to download from the Nintendo eShop. Not available in Japan.
