Sony have left themselves open for criticism after revealing footage from a new PlayStation game which takes users into a Japanese schoolgirl's bedroom.
The game, Summer Lesson, is designed for use on PlayStation 4 and PS Vita consoles.
It was showcased during a press conference in which Sony revealed more information about Project Morpheus, the company's upcoming virtual reality headset.
With the headset giving you the capacity to look around the girl's bedroom, the ability to focus on the student's chest and skirt could be seen as controversial.
The contentious footage comes during a time when developers are under increasing pressure to change the way women are depicted in games.
Regardless of the fact that females make up just less than half of the consumer market, very few gaming storylines involve women playing the main character.
