2. EA Sports MMA

In probably the most amusing ban to make the list comes from the world of Mixed Martial Arts. With this being the second sports title to make the list, there must be a long drawn out reason for why Denmark wanted nothing to do with a MMA game, right?! That’s unfortunately not exactly the case, Denmark doesn’t have a problem with MMA nor with EA Sports in general – they disliked a certain product being advertised within the game.

Denmark has a law where it is illegal to market specific energy drinks – EA refused to remove the ads and thus the game was banned in Denmark. Yes, energy drinks have been scientifically proven to be slightly more healthy than eating paint, but banning a game over energy drinks is quite new. EA Sports is a gaming powerhouse, so the ad revenue they were receiving probably outweighed the sells they would have made in Denmark. Either way it makes for an interesting story!
