Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Deadly Premonition 2 is for the larger part an investigative adventure title - there are also action parts interspersed. There is what can be considered (unrealistic) violence against enemies, be it fantasy creatures or sometimes animals. There are horror elements in a fantasy setting and the main character (a detective) uses a gun as well as a fantasy weapon against enemies.

In the earliest stages of the game there is In the earliest minutes of the game you see:
A naked body of a woman, preserved in an ice block, not realistically or explicitly shown. Soon after, a man is shown sitting in a chair smoking marijuana in the first circa 10 minutes, described as being for medicinal use, and legal in Boston (the sequence of smoking is not controlled by the player).

There is a bar in the game, where alcohol is served, and the investigation (in the past) centers around a murder case - but the violence is rarely realistic. When violent acts are shown in the adventure sections, it's often in service of the story - and the violent acts are often more alluded to (shown with phantom figures or camera angles disguising the details).
