Swastikas or Nazi related imagery will no longer be removed from video games automatically after Germany's national rating agency USK announced the change.

The agency announced that video games releasing in Germany will be treated as movies and as works of art, they will be exempt from the ban on the use of Swastikas or Nazi imagery, Cnet reported.

Germany's gaming industry has welcomed the change that lifts the blanket ban on video game use of swastikas or Adolf Hitler's mustache.
