After a naked Chun Li scandalised a fighting game tournament, Capcom sounds the alarm about PC game modding: 'There are a number of mods that are offensive to public order and morals'

Street Fighter 6 Chun Li.

Bad news for everyone who ever turned Mr X into Thomas the Tank Engine: Capcom's got its eye on you.
