Steam Offering A “Low Violence Version” Of Saints Row IV

In the wake of Saints Row IV's "ban" in Australia, a "Low Violence Version" of the game has appeared on Steam.

Available for Australian customers, there's no explanation as to what this version actually changes, leading to the suspicion it's simply being offered in expectation that publishers Deep Silver will resubmit a modified copy of the game to try and get past Australia's notoriously conservative Classification Board.

Kotaku Australia asked the publishers for further information on the matter, but were told "Deep Silver has no further comments at this time".

This seems...silly. A "low violence" Saints Row IV is like a "low driving" Gran Turismo.
