The BAFTA Games Awards pulls indie game's trailer at the last minute, citing "the wellbeing of all guests"

BAFTA pulled the trailer for the indie game The Quiet Things from its Games Awards showcase at the last minute over content concerns.

The organization said it could not adequately warn attendees about the trailer’s sensitive themes in the event setting.

Developer Silver Script Games and Alyx Jones said the sudden removal was distressing and cost the game a major exposure opportunity.

The incident has renewed debate over how awards shows should handle indie games dealing with trauma and other sensitive subjects.
